Employer allegations

What should you do if you have been accused of serious wrongdoing by your boss or employer? Some employers are completely unscrupulous, and some are reckless about making accusation of theft or other serious misconduct. If you are innocent, you need to know how to respond. If you have made a mistake or done something wrong, you also need to minimize the short-term and long-term harm that could result.

How should I respond to allegation of poor performance? This is another topic that is given the attention it deserves in the book.

Sexual harassment – Wrongly accused

A  worrying trend is that some workers are being targeted on trumped-up or exaggerated harassment allegations.  Many employers over-react very savagely to minor complaints, and a new class of victims has been one result. What can you do if you have been falsely accused? What if a co-worker makes a complaint?

COMPLAINTS AND ORGANIZATIONAL CULTURE

Organizational culture

A good test of a healthy organization is how it handles employee complaints.

Employers come in all shapes and sizes. And workplace culture can have a huge impact on employee satisfaction.

These factors can affect the quality of your working life. All employees should try to gain an understanding of these issues.

I want to make a complaint at work

“Should I make a complaint at all? Formal or informal? Where should I go first?”

Do I need a lawyer to deal with my work issue?

"Free legal advice" – be careful

 

Our research has shown that a very frequent internet search request is “free legal advice.” The problem is, you cannot really obtain leal advice without seeing a lawyer, and explaining the details of your individual problem to the lawyer. Even then you’d be lucky to obtain the legal advice for “free” because, of course, lawyers usually charge fees for their advice.

So, if you’re surfing the web looking for “free legal advice,” be prepared for disappointment. You will be probably find plenty of “free advice” but the advice cannot be “legal advice.” 

You should also remember the old saying; “Free advice is worth only what you pay for it.” You might find some information by doing research, but that is not “free legal advice.”

Author and lawyer T J McHugh understands these issues; he understands the desperate need for information that confronts people with work problems; and he has provided the answers to all the most common questions. No, the book cannot provide "legal advice." It contains general advice, based on sound legal principles.

After reading the book, you will be far clearer about whether you still need legal advice, and if you do, you will know exactly what questions you should be asking.
