Thanks Rita! I have done that to cover myself.
You might also make your suggestions in e-mail form in order that they will be a history of your suggestions. (I would keep a paper copy also.) If you stay there, this might be helpful in the future. It would show that you did all you could and the final decisions were made by the boss.
Thanks for your honest answers. I have tried Betty’s approach and Elizabeth is correct when she said to look for new employment where I would be valued, except there are no jobs out there now! :-(
there have been some recent cases involving this issue that the employer lost to the tune of significant penalties and back pay for overtime, etc. perhaps if you provide such articles to him to justify your concern and how it could affect his own pocket book you will get the support you need from him.
I think no one has replied yet because no one wants to put their neck on the line by telling you what the possible legal ramifications might be – even if they tell you annonymously.
Personally, I also won’t tell you what the end results could be; but I will tell you that I was previously in a position where I strongly disagreed with the owner (my boss) regarding some employment issues. I made it my priority to find new employment where I knew that I would be valued, and that all legitimate concerns would be addressed.
Come on people! I am waiting for your responses!
