wrongful termination claims Archives

Firing employees who report unsafe working conditions is illegal

Texas employees who work in conditions that are unsafe and unhealthy have a legal right to report their employers to federal agencies like the Occupational Safety and Health Administration. At least 22 statutes protect whistleblowers from retaliation initiated by their employers after filing a complaint about illegal activity. Prohibitions against retaliation encompass many forms of adverse actions, such as job termination, demotion, cut in hours, cut in pay, harassment, intimidation and denial of benefits.

For example, one Texas police officer has filed a wrongful termination lawsuit against his superiors after he was suspended indefinitely.
