Inhaltsangabe

The One Book you Should Keep in Your Top Desk Drawer! Everyone knows what it means to have a job, but few of us know that every aspect of the workplace is covered by a complex, ever-changing set of laws-and that employees have more legal rights than most know. In The Employee Rights Handbook, nationally known radio host and workplace attorney Steven Sack gives you all the information you need to protect yourself and thrive in your job-and to fight back if you are illegally fired. He answers the questions employers don't want you to ask, including: * My employer wants to fire me and hire a younger person at lower pay. Is that legal? * I was "downsized" two weeks before I was supposed to get my annual bonus. Am I entitled to that money? * My child has come down with a debilitating disease. Does the Family and Medical Leave Act protect me if I take time off to care for her? * My former employer wrote an untrue, negative evaluation that is hurting my chances for a new job. What can I do? * I need to find a lawyer to help me fight an illegal firing. How do I choose one-and how much is it going to cost? Helping you to save time and money, this guide also includes sample letters and other documents that you can copy and use, negotiation strategies, important information on discrimination and sexual harassment, and a special section for commissioned sales reps.
