Wrong employment termination and Discrimination.
You most definitely need to talk with a lawyer about this, as cases like this hinge entirely on the specific facts and circumstances of the termination.
This kind of problem is under laws that are specific to each state, and different. This could be a violation of your leave rights or it could be discrimination against you. You should consult with a local employment law attorney about this.

Yes. While you are working and using the employer's phone system or receiving the calls, the conversation is not private or confidential as against the employer because at the time you are the employer- you are not taking the call as an individual. The warning about possible recording is to... Read more »
Even though it's a department of education school and the department of Ed is accommodating teachers, my job is not taking my request seriously nor are they willing to make any accommodation for my religious practice. I was told I would be placed on unpaid leave with no regard to my request... Read more »
Your question does not indicate what your religious accommodation request is. Whether your employer's decision to place you on an unpaid leave is unlawful depends on your accommodation request, whether your request eliminates one of the essential functions of your job, and/or causes your...

My work put up a sign saying a position starts at $17.25/hr. I work the position and only make $15.48/hr. My employer told a coworker that it’s because we work 32 hours a week instead of 40.
Maybe not. This is not really a minimum wage question, it is whether the employer has misrepresented the terms of employment. In CA, it is unlawful for an employer to misrepresent the terms of employment to get you to move to CA for the job. In OR? You should contact a local employment law... Read more »
My bf was denied a job at Taco mayo from a domestic back n 1999-2000
Typically, backgrounds go back 10 years for credit and 7 years for criminal convictions but that can be longer depending on the job, responsibilities, etc... If it is expunged, or deferred adjudication was successful, then they will not see it at all. The State is restricted by statute to even... Read more »

You may be losing valuable time here awaiting a response on this forum - your post remains open for two weeks. If the situation you describe does give way to any type of remedy/worker comp-type relief, it would probably be governed by the laws of Australia. The attorneys here generally advise on...

Depends on the overall policy. If it happens you can try calling the human relations commission. In the meantime, why not get the shot---it has been tested on hundreds of millions of people.
Do to a second background check I was terminated after 4 years of employment
You did not ask a question, but since you posted your inquiry under the subject area Employment Discrimination, I suppose you are wondering if you are the victim of illegal discrimination, as well as if there is anything you can do to obtain monetary compensation. While the employer did... Read more »
The individual that harassed me continues to work there, and creates a hostile environment.
First step is to report this to your employer. You may also need to consider petitioning for a PPO.
The individual that harassed me continues to work there, and creates a hostile environment.
It’s good that there is hard evidence in the case, rather than a case of he said she said. The first step is to document with the HR department at your company. Hopefully your employer will take steps to ensure that this does not happen again. If they do not, you will have a compilation of... Read more »
I'm a Healthcare provider in NYS and do not want to be vaccinated. I am being asked to resign. What are the risks/benefits for resignation verses being laid off or terminated? I understand I will not get unemployment
The main benefit of resignation is that you will not have a termination on your record. For example, when applying for new jobs, many job applications will inquire as to whether you've ever been terminated from a previous job. By resigning in lieu of being terminated, you will avoid any... Read more »

Under California Labor Code 1102.5, if you complain to your employer about something you reasonably believe to be unlawful, and the employer retaliates against you (in this case terminated you), you may have a case for whistleblower retaliation. I would recommend seeking a free consultation with an... Read more »

Unfortunately, this Q&A site is not a place to ask attorneys to contact you to work for you.
If you can prove you were harassed and discriminated against because of your religious beliefs, you may well have a meritorious legal claim.
Whether or not you would have a meritorious... Read more »
My advice to you would be to seek out an employment attorney (most give free consultations) as soon as possible and give them the facts of your case so that they may assess whether you have any legally actionable claims.

You need to consult with a worker's compensation attorney right away.
Pleaded guilty but was dismissed in Virginia. Do I have to disclose the misdemeanor in an interview or asked?
Will a dismissed case affect my chances of getting hired ?
Ah, the lawyer's favorite answer: "It depends."
If the question is: "Have you ever been charged, arrested, accused, etc. of a crime (if they either do not specify or specifically mention misdemeanors)?" then you would be untruthful if you replied in the negative.... Read more »

Yes. It would be viewed as a voluntary quit. Companies can mandate vaccines unless you have a medical or religious exemption.
Both sides get the opportunity to call witnesses at trial. However, there are rules requiring disclosure in advance, so the other side can prepare.
