How is this legal? Does the US have zero employee protection regulation?
If this happened in NZ, the business owner would be put through the ringer and it would be front page news (it's been front page plenty here) for unfair dismissal.
The laws are there, sure. But if you become a corporate "whistle blower" you're not likely to get a job again. And the company will just drown the accusations in fines and litigation and nothing changes because we're poor and solo, because we're not unionized because if we try we get fired (again, illegally).
Yup. But they don't work. Same problems. They'll get dog piled by litigation, threats, and investigations. meanwhile said whistle blower is unemployed and getting raked through the mud. Not much protection going on.
They have employment rules, but I believe as they employee your main recourse would be to sue them. They don't have a government entity like Employment New Zealand to hold the employer to account on the employee's behalf.
