The Right to Be Told When There Is a Problem

Jonathan T. Hyman

Chapter Chapter 6 in The Employer Bill of Rights, 2012, pp 119-148 from Springer

Abstract: Abstract Unless employers know a problem exists, they cannot correct it. There is one area, however, in which employers have an absolute legal obligation to take in, investigate, and remedy employee complaints—namely, unlawful discrimination and harassment. Additionally, whenever employees complain about illegal activities, they enjoy a right to continued employment free from retaliation. These two issues, taken together, present one of the most dangerous employees an employer will face—the complainer.
