My coworkers are having problems with the company?

Bring up a lawsuit against them with well documented hours of work and some from of job description and any pay stubs.  I hate that I am telling you this, but I do not like it when people abuse their weaknesses. Once a lawsuit is brought up they normally get a temp work VISA to stay in the country until is is settled, but by then most are able to find a better job and able to get extensions.  Had one subcontracts employee sue an apartment and got a work visa out of it. It is some times a risk, but you your friends case it just might work.  contact a good lawyer and you just might pull if off.

speak to a lawer dealing with employmeny issues, if he has a sicknote covering him and he was fired for that then there is a case, what the company may do is say that he was fired for another reason

Blowing things off for management to do is ok but it's really not the answer.  Management expects the employees they pay to work out their own issues.  \n\nIf an attempt to work this out with her has already been taken (you've actually DISCUSSED this with this lady) and nothing was done, THEN you discuss it with management.\n\nIf you haven't talked to her already, then talk to her.  Let her know what the problem is.  She honestly may not be aware that she has a problem.\n\nAnd you would be doing her a greater service talking to her personally rather than letting her hear it from management and then finding out that everyone was talking about her behind her back.  Bad form!!!  Talk to her.

They may have hired someone else already or the person required to make that decision could be out .\nIts time to call to see whats up.

This is tricky. I would talk to the manager above your manager. Tell them as genuinely as possible that you really enjoy the company and the opportunity they have given you. Explain that you are concerned about an employee that is not pulling their weight and you dont want to see team morale drop because of this... and then you mention that OTHERS have told you there may be a relationship. \nOnce you bring this issue forward (you may want to bring a witness) they cant let you go due to performance w/o the chance of you sueing them for wrongful dismissal. I would also let them know that you enjoy working with this person (even if you dont) but only when they are working as they should. This way it doesnt sound like a personal problem. \nGood luck

This happens alot especially in smaller businesses where you have family members or people who have worked for the company for a long time. Plant a small tape recorder somewhere near the place where people have a tendency to gather and talk. Break room, smokers area, lunch room.You might be able to head off some of the roomers before they get to your Boss. Try to make them look foolish. You cannot play this for your Boss but it could come in handy if things got to a point of he said she said. These 2 people do not like you because the boss obviously likes your work and they feel threatened. Whether the threat is real or not. In private explain to your Boss the situation at hand and without pointing the finger at the 2 girls who have it in for you. Just tell him that you are not like that and he will have to form his own opinion about you. You like working here but you will seek another position elsewhere if he feels that theses accusations are true. Ask him if he has had this happen with other employees? Sometimes they don't see a pattern until you bring it up? Had the same problem with the New Head Chef where I work. She was out to get me fired because I was too meticulous in my work. She would tell people what she made and then blame me in front of the boss for telling people what she made(I am the Payrolll clerk/Bookkeeper) I stuck to my guns and stayed on top of her all the time. I finally saw a problem with things missing and people fighting with each other all the time. I went to my Boss and left him a note saying think about when your problems here all started? I left it at that. He started watching her more closely and found out she was stealing stuff from the freezer on a daily basis. He fired her and apologized to me and we have a very good trust relationship going now. It was not easy and I had to bite my tongue many many times. Be careful if you use the tape you may hear things you did not really want to hear. Stick to your guns and keep your cool. If they think they are starting to wear you down they will keep on doing it. If they think it isn't working they will give up.

Talk to your/their manager or contact your Human Resoources department right away and let them know what happened. Not only is it demeaning/insulting to you, it makes your company look unprofessional for it's employees to be speaking that way in front of a client.

Yes, you are getting hosed! but that is typical for a private sector job.  Unless you are higher level professional or manager, or work in the public sector (state/local/fed gov't) then that is par for the course.\nConsider organizing a union to air your greivances.

Ignore them.  They're obviously blaming you for their own problems, and are not worth the time.  I used to have a coworker who accused me of sleeping with the boss because I didn't live pay cheque to pay cheque.  That's just because I didn't spend my money on clothes or nights out on the town and was saving for school instead.

Call the head of the management and financial department and file a grievance.  Then get some legal advice and show the contract and go from there to sue them for lost wages due to negligence on their part.  That is so wrong.  Good luck!

yes if it is a problem for them, they can do that. look at your companies policy first to see if they can punish you or not, it should vary from company to company

If push comes to shove, use OSHA standards.  First, however, talk to the company representative you are working under, to see if some things were not briefed that should have been when you started the job about those provisions

Be careful if you want to stay in your job, as it sounds like you are clashing with quite a number of people at the moment.  If you are not careful, your upper management will notice, and start to think that you are difficult to work with, or not a team player.\nNext time, address it directly, face to face with the other employee.  If they repeat, then its time to escalate the issue.  Speak with their manager about their non-performance.  Its something I have to do occasionally, and its never fun to go over someone's head, but sometimes, it just has to be done.
