Many large corporations who commit heinous crimes look forward to blaming employees, hoping their troubles will disappear. How do outside investigators find out about potential Ponzi schemes, fictitious earnings reports and other corporate duplicities? Employee whistleblowers.
Rager & Yoon – Employment Lawyers, a pro-workforce firm that handles Riverside retaliation cases such as harassment and unmerited firing due to whistleblowing, steps in when employees fear unspeakable action against them. Whether reporting harassment, workplace safety issues, or wage tampering, employees who take grievances to state and federal agencies are protected from retaliation.
Companies Fear Regulation. So, They Retaliate.
Most places we work, eat, entertain and sleep have specific regulations that must be followed. Whether restaurants must have one ServSafe certified food handler, or entire factories must be OSHA compliant and ISO certified, regulation means expenses. As many of our Riverside retaliation cases suggest, many businesses either prefer to ignore regulatory requests, and simply thrive in hostility. Or hate spending money. Here at Rager & Yoon – Employment Lawyers, our vast experience in litigating against companies who retaliate against employees for bringing unsafe or unethical concerns into public view allows us to handle cases such as:- Excessive disciplinary action stemming from employee(s) who alerts EEOC of discriminatory hiring practices.
- Cutting off employee benefits, even docking pay, for alerting SEC investigators of potential insider trading practices.
- Giving negative performance evaluations because employee started a petition to present changes to corporate policy.
- Firing employees, then giving purposely negative references, because employee stood up for another being bullied.
