Torrance Kaiser Permanente Attorney Kaiser Permanente employs over 20,000 people in California. They also help thousands of patients every year. It takes a huge, dedicated team to care for that many people. However, because of a large number of people that run through medical facilities like the Torrance Medical Offices, Kaiser sometimes mistreats their employees for the sake of making money by getting patients through their facilities.
California has strict patient care laws. Health employees are sometimes required to report violations of patient care standards, and they may voluntarily report concerning conditions as well. When that happens, your employer should simply address the problem and move on. However, there are situations where a supervisor or even a co-worker will take negative action against the employee that reported the incident. This type of activity is often illegal, and you can take action against your employer.
The Rager Law Firm has been asserting claims against Kaiser Permanente for over 20 years. Many of these claims deal with the exact situations described above. It is based on “retaliation.” Oher employment claims include things like harassment, discrimination, and wrongful termination.
You can start your employment law claim against Kaiser Permanente yourself. However, your employer wants you to do this because it is much harder to win your case when you don’t have an attorney. There are two primary reasons that a Kaiser Permanente attorney will be helpful to your employment-related case.
