How is a claim filed, and how long does an employee have to file it? Join Bill, Rick and Steve to find out these answers and more.

However, in order for this to be actionable, you must typically demonstrate that you were forced into voluntary dismissal in violation of California law. Join Bill, Rick and Steve for a discussion on exactly what you should expect as an employee contemplating resignation and what you, as an employer, can do to avoid this disconcerting scenario.

Medical Marijuana in the Workplace
Your legal right to use medical marijuana protects you from criminal prosecution, but not from employer drug testing programs. If you were taking a different legally prescribed drug for your condition, you would most likely be protected by the Americans With Disabilities Act (ADA). However, this protection hasn’t been extended to medical marijuana.

EMPLOYMENT LAW
Employers are allowed to set standards for employee conduct, and they can require that workers keep a clean criminal record upon hire. As an employee, disclosure laws vary by state and the industry you work in. Furthermore, an employer generally may not use a consumer credit report for employment purposes with certain specific exceptions. Join Bill, Steve and Rick and learn what can and cannot be asked of, and obtained from employees, on our next show.

An employee must understand what he/she is protected from and an employer must understand what his obligations to an at-will employee are. Understanding the interplay of an employer-employee relationship will facilatate loyalty through a spirit of “partnership” rather than through a perception of boss to worker. This will allow your focus to turn to growth rather than employee turnover.
Join Bill, Steve and Rick to learn what legitimate safeguards you can expect from your employer.
