First things first: call an experienced NC employment lawyer to discuss your case. Our team will evaluate your case for free – there is no cost or obligation. Here are additional actions you can take if you feel that your employer has violated your rights: Collect proof. Gather any text messages, emails, voicemails, phone calls, pay stubs, and any other records of the violation. Make copies so you can give one to your employer. Create a timeline. Chart when violations occurred, when you reported the violation, and when and how your employer reacted (or didn’t). Inform your employer. Employers cannot correct wrongs if they do not know about them. Inform your employer of any disability, pregnancy, or medical condition that needs accommodation. File a complaint with HR or the appropriate person at your company or your supervisor if you are being harassed or discriminated against. Give documentation of what you have experienced to your supervisor or HR department. If they are already aware and have not made an effort to correct the violation, this step may strengthen your case. Document all communication. Take note of what you have said about the violation(s) to whom, as well as all responses you have received. At the Law Offices of James Scott Farrin, we want to level the playing field between you and your employer. We will help you understand if your employer has violated any employee protection laws, and we will fight for the fair compensation you may deserve.
