Hello everyone...I posted the below statement about a month ago. My wife and her boss was at ends with each other and I tried explaining it, but it seems that what I was saying wasn't a problem. Anyways a new topic has came up and that is my wife was suspended from work for 2 weeks due to her asthma medicine. Her boss said the medication my wife was on altered the mind and that my wife couldn't work while using the medication...now let me explain #1 my wife only uses the cough medicine before she go to sleep my wife was told by her boss to either stop using the medication or loss her job # 2 The doctor wrote a statement to her boss saying that the medication does not have that side effect. My wife tried to give the statement to her boss, but her boss said she didn't want to see it and that her lawyer advised her that it did have a side effect of altering the mind. That following week my wife received a phone call at home before leaving for work from her boss saying a client has advised her "the boss" that she knwe my wife and that my wife had tried to sell her crack!!!! my wife had a meeting with her boss this morning and they terminated my wife employment due to the accusation. Now I know for a fact that this is 100% false. My wife boss has been trying to make my wife quit and my was wasn't leaving uless she was fired, but this is going to far. This statment will ruin my wife character...is there something that we can do?
My wife works for a Drug rehab and is having problems with the person who owns the company. Theres so many things, but I'll keep it short and most recent. My wife had to go out of work due to her asthma and being hospitalized for 6 days and the doctor placed her out for 3 weeks and 3 days. Also the doctor had faxed the employer/owner all paper work and a description of a mask my wife has to wear while at work. The owner told my wife she would have the mask when my wife returns to work. While my wife was out she received a written warning letter stating she voilated NC "unethical law" by receiving a flyer from a client promoting home improvement. My wife took the flyer and gave it to her mother who do not live with us and her mother had the guy fix a few things at her house, but the same guy does work at the drug rehab my wife works at. My wife return to work this Sunday and was told the owner could not find the mask the doctor requested and to use another style of mask. My wife aksed the owner if she would like a sample of the mask from the doctor she could get it. The owner then replied if you can get a sample from the doctor to go ahead and use that one cause the only one she "owner" could find was the one she gave my wife. Also my wife and others have said that the owner talks to them in a rude manner and uses profanity at times. Also each time my wife is due to be released off probationary status she get's written up for something for an example...my wife was written up for not dusting a vase and this was a few days before her probation status was to be lifted.
Is any of this legal and ethical?
