| Is it legal to demoted and take a salary away from a manager with no just cause ? |
| My concern is that I was removed/demoted from a managerial position. I was hired in a physicans office to be the nurse and also the practice manager. Approx one year later the physician I work for was approached by the company''s CEO and was asked to help with the cost of another practice manager that would be shared by 6 other physicians. The more physicians on board the more cost effective it would be for all involved. Approx 2 months later I was told that both salaries could not be paid and that I would be losing mine, to the sum of $12,000 a year. I have had no complaints or problems from administration or my physician to warrant such a change. This decision has caused a great deal of financial burden on my life. I am unable to cover my cost of living due to the drastic reduction in salary. My concerns have been met with negativity and misreatment by the parties involved, to the point of almost harrasment. Any advice would be deeply appreciated..Thank you, Jon. R |
| I was hired as a temp employee with a one year contract which is not being honored. I didn''t get t |
| My hiring letter (from a SUNY school, as a non-teaching professional) states that I was hired for a one year term, ending on August 31, 2012, and what the salary was. After I started working, I was told by my supervisor that I was not going to be salaried but was hourly. When I asked him what that meant, he said "It doesn''t really mean anything. It adds up to the same amount of money, you just have to fill out a different kind of time card", and that I am to work 37.5 hours/week. when I did the math, my hourly rate was over $2500 less than the salary I was told I would be getting. When I asked about it, I was (evntually) told that they would look into it. I went through all of the proper channels, supervisor, union rep, HR office. After 2 months of working here, I have now been told "Good news, you can start working a 40 hour week" (I am the only one) and also that I''ve been so productive that they now only need me until Dec 16th |
| My fiance works for a company driving a van and delivering oxygen and such. He got in an accident an |
| I believe that the both labor laws and driving laws state that for every 7 days he works consecutively, he must have a consecutive 24 hours of rest. Therefore, could they have been at fault for his accident seeing as he was driving for his 10th consecutive day at that point, therefore they are firing him with no legal entitilement to? Does he have a case to fight that seeing as they have broken multiple laws? |
