LET’S TAKE THE BULL BY THE HORNS (816) 474-4600
When blowing a whistle results in a wrongful discharge
While it may be difficult to turn your employer in for violating regulations or statutes, that activity, known as whistleblowing, is protected under the law. Unfortunately, some employers feel that they can retaliate against employees who blow the whistle on illegal activity — resulting in a wrongful discharge. When that happens, you need an aggressive, hard-charging advocate who will "take the bull by the horns" in protecting your rights.
At the Employee Rights Law Firm, that is the level of representation we provide clients in Kansas City and throughout the state. Employers engaged in dangerous or fraudulent activity must be held accountable. While retaliation may occur if you report it, any action taken against you is illegal. You should retain a seasoned attorney if you think you have a claim. Contact us at (816) 474-4600.
Contact our law office if you are being disciplined by your employer for whistleblowing.
You should not be forced to work in an environment that is dangerous. A lack of safety or a number of hazards at your jobsite may violate OSHA regulations. Your employer refuses to take action, so you feel the need to contact the authorities regarding the safety violations. You may even have suffered an injury, requiring a workers’ comp claim.
Holding Your Employer Accountable for Wrongful Discharge
In the end, your employer uncovers the source of the complaint and discovers your workers’ compensation claim, then terminates you, resulting in a wrongful discharge. He or she has just made a bad situation that much worse through his or wrongfully discharging an employee. In addition to having to deal with OSHA, he or she now has to deal with an attorney at the Employee Rights Law Firm.
It doesn't matter whether you were employed at a retail facility or a production plant; it's illegal to be wrongfully discharged for identifying workplace hazards and unfit facilities. Thankfully, our qualified attorneys are constantly standing by to provide support.
If you suspect that you've been wrongfully discharged from your professional position, we urge you to schedule a preliminary consultation with our workplace retaliation attorney. For years, the Employee Rights Law Firm has continued to provide up-to-date counsel to clients throughout the Cameron, Jefferson City, Vandalia, Chillicothe, Kansas City, and Springfield, MO communities. All you have to do is contact our local firm to protect your rights as a whistleblower in a court of law.
