Dear jpg:
I would suggest that your friend go to the nearest EEOC office (State or Federal) and attempt to file a complaint. She may get a sympathetic Case Worker who would extend the time limits because your friend was not aware of the law. (Did she happen to notice an Equal Employment Opportunity poster in the workplace??)
In addition, she can look for an employment attorney (look in the yellow pages or call the local Bar Association for a referral) to discuss a possible unjust termination civil suit.

Dear Paladin,
Personally, i appreciate ur concern to not to deprive Mr A.
U r like a social worker in place of ...... Pls don't mind.
U will sacrifice for unjustice.
I would do the same what u will.
In addition to that,
The followings are the options too:
1) First i will consult Mr A and will convey the intention of my boss.
2) I will try to find the substitue of Mr A whether available in the organisation or not.
3) I will prepare confidential report that will go to higher management.
4) I will do lot of documentation as records what u suggested.
5) I will try to develop a situation for termination of boss in place of mine or Mr A.
6) Being an individual, i will try to convince my boos to not to do such unjustice.
All above mentioned options, I will do in proper order.
Despite all efforts, if situation is only termination (boss can terminate on confidential ground), i will resign immediate with sufficient notice period. i will not harm my image too.
Anyway, its my opion.
Ur action is more better than me.
Note: I will try to save Mr A and me and try for termination of boss bze his action is against organisation.

Yes, certainly she can file a suit against the employer and even win, provided the lawyer she hires is good and can argue her case well. Praveen.

Dear Sidhu1972:
If the boss wants immediate action, you do not have time for options 1, 2, or 5. What do you do, aside from trying to convince the boss that his actions are unjust?
If you resign, in order to save your reputation, what will your response be to the prospective employer when (s)he asks why you resigned? Implication of resignation is that you were about to be fired for some indiscretion - poor performance, disruptive influence, or the like.
Such perception will be underscored with a background check (telephone interview with "the boss").
So the question remains what do you do? Resign or confront the boss?

Hi Paladin,
Resignation reasons may be different. Thousand of reasons......
If boss is in need of immediate action, i ll pick up same speed of the boss. Do u know INFLUENCE OF EXTERNAL FACTORS???? HOW DOES IT WORKS??? If boss is wrong, i ll teach lesson by sacrifice so that he will lean not to repeat same thing to others.
What u ll achieve, if u ll approach to media and so on so.... r u going to became gernalist???? No question of asking such thing. If employer will ask, i ll reply according to needs of employer. If i ll reply that there is fight between me and boss thats why i left....means total negative attitude.
So we should apply practical approach in place of thesis...... I know how to handle such boss......
Niether Mr A or nor ME will loose the job. Our Boss will be out. If you want to know (i can't write every thing in this live forum) pls Spk to me +91-9844586572.
If still u hav confusion, pls write for my next step. I will satisfy ur querry.
Kindly don't take in other way. We are professional and we should handle in professional way, if not possible in this way, options are open......

If a person is terminated and the reasons for the termination is due to "performance" but the performance is not being evaluated based on actual perfoirmance but on feedback that other co-workers are providing to your upper management, shouldn' there be an actual investigation done on the person being discreditized??? Would the ethical thing to do is verify both parties to determine who is telling the truth??
In my friends case she was a recruiter but she reported to another staffing manager who was not in her remote location. One of her co-workers was not to fond of her so she started saying negative things about her, my friend tried to escalate the situation and expalian what was going on and her word meant nothing to her manager, instead she was not only written up for everything but she was outcasted from her team. When they had job fairs or any special activities, she was never asked for input on anything and she was always the last one to find out about any special activities.
Can anyone share any guidence as to what steps can be taken?? Is there any senior management that can tell me what he or she would do in a scenarion like this. How can this be argued in a civil court or with corporate management? Also should she try to resolve this issue with somone in corporate before taking it to a civil court?

Dear,
My suggestion is not to involve in legal proceeding and she should try for another job without wasting of time. Suppose she will get the job, why unnecessary she will be harassed by lodging complain against company. My suggestion is that if she is govt employee then she should knock the court door otherwise she should try hard to get another job. After getting job, she can knock the court door, if she feel so do.
Pls suggest ur freind to try for another job first.
