Q: What examples that can be proven were an employer did NOT act in good faith giving a reference on a former employee NM
I was terminated 8/7/23 for policy violation (lack of work completion). I was a Medicaid Services Manager for a home care agency. When coming back from vacation 6/27/23 I had a leg injury resulting in being broken. I was greeted back by having a meeting with HR, owner, and another manager placing me on a 90 day PIP. From 6/27-8/7 I was doctor ordered for light duty therefore unable to complete home visits. That duty was assigned to another staff which did not get completed for July due to not starting until 1 week before due. Resulting in said “policy violation” and my termination when I was medically unable to complete “lacking work”. Prior to incident I had made several complaints stating i need help. Work expectations were not realistic for 1 person. I was refused help. Last annual review was done for me when I was promoted in December 2020. I have been passed on jobs so I did a reference checking service and need help if this falls under employer not acting in good faith
