This is happening in a Walmart! Managers are aware and have met with her several times but to no avail, Every day is worse when she’s working! Yelling and throwing things across the room at other people!
There is a difference between an angry, moody and agressive co-worker, and a co-worker that has injured others and will likely injure others. The law does not require an employer to discipline or terminate an angry, moody, belligerent employee as none of that is unlawful. However, the employer is... Read more »

Unfortunately, this Q&A board is not the place to solicit an attorney to work for you, pro bono or otherwise. It would be inappropriate for anyone here to respond to you with a desire to take your case. You are going to have to locate attorneys and discuss your matter with them directly.... Read more »

By crops I mean over 10tons of grapes.
No. Employers must indemnify employees for business expenses and accidental losses. Employees can only be charged for intentional losses caused by things like theft.
I am sorry you have had to deal with this. Unfortunately, your post does not clearly tell us whether this is an employee of a company you were a customer of, or if this was a co-worker. The answer would be slightly different for each.
If these comments were by a co-worker or supervisor,... Read more »

Recently my manager change our vacation hours from 10hrs to 12hrs per day. Our employee handbook does not specify how many hours we can use per day. All it says is "We encourage employees to take their vacation one week at a time, but vacation may be taken in increments as small as one hour".
Vacation is an employee benefit that an employer does not have to provide to employees, and the employer can administer its vacation policy as it wishes with a few exceptions. For instance, the vacation policy cannot treat people of different protected characteristics differently because of that... Read more »
I literally received an email from my employer asking me to provide more info about my religious exemption and was told that I must respond within 3 calendar days and included a series of questions that I have to answer regarding my religious affiliation
Your employer is within their rights to follow up on your request for a religious exemption to verify that it is a truly held religious belief. You should comply with their request for more information if you wish for them to grant you an exemption to their requirement for the Covid-19 vaccine.... Read more »
I have been upfront with the distributor and they were willing to hire me. Their client has been making wrongful claims against me. What can I do?
On a practical level, very little. If you could prove that the claims being made about you are objectively false statements of past or present fact - not opinion - that caused you reputation loss and resulting in damages, then you might have a defamation claim. Not knowing specifically what was... Read more »

I’m not a lead they just ask me to help them out and told me to give bonus but they did not give me bonus. I trained few people but nothing. Can I file a lawsuit? How much can I get if I did?
While the promise to give you a bonus to train people is probably to vague to be enforced, you should be entitled to be paid for all hours worked, including the time you trained the other couriers. Unless you worked more than 8 hours total on that day or days, you would be entitled to pay at your... Read more »

Nothing has happened since then?
First, small claims jurisdiction does not allow for a claim as high as $21,000. If you brought a claim that was higher than the jurisdictional amount, the most the court could have awarded to you would be the jurisdictional limit.
Second, if you appeared and he did not, you should have won... Read more »

I am an out of state employee working in CA. I am classified by my company as exempt, but make less than 2x the CA minimum wage. Would I be considered non-exempt and eligible for time and a half and double time while working in CA?
If you are physically working in California then the California Labor Code dictates how your employer must treat you. If you are not making at least double the minimum wage, you are not an exempt employee in California. That means you should be paid overtime, be provided with meal and rest... Read more »
