Isn't the h.r. dept. in most companies there for employees protection? Twice I have gone there and ended up in

it depends on your company's organization chart and its greivance policy. Many companies have formal policies that you must report improper workplace behavior to your supervisor first.  Also, in some companies, HR does more of "people management" type things instead of "problem management," such as maintaining employee records, processing leave requests, etc. Your first stop should be your company's employee handbook which should outline their policies.

Well, out of all departments, that is the most frantic.  Perhaps, they can cross train you so you can get more hours in other departments??  \n\nThink about the benefit of employee discount for holiday shopping ;)

That's a great idea.  I wonder how many potential employees are being stabbed in the back every day and have no idea it's happening.  I found out the hard way when a great job offer was rescinded, and the woman who had "hired" me told me not to come to work after all.  With a little pressure, she told me the truth, and I have the names of several former co-workers who did me in.

The policy will vary between companies as it is likely a disciplinary offence.\n\nBest bet is to go and ask for the manager and make a formal complaint.  He doesn't need the hassle but make it clear if he doesn't get it sorted you will write to head office.

you cant have workmans comp on one employee only and this has nothing to do with liability insurance.. you can have a P.A (personal accidents) insurance instead.

Every company I have worked for has.  There have only been 6, but they have ranged from small (4 employees) to large (5000+) employees.  I think when most people  (9 out of 10) say that the company they work for doesn't treat them with respect, they are spoiled brats who think the world should hand them everything.  Most companies don't want to drive away employees, it costs too much to look for and retrain new ones.

You have a right to some information pertaining to your employment e.g. employee reviews, warnings, drug testing, salary adjustments, personal information etc. You do not necessarily have the same rights with regard to compalints made about you by another employee and so forth since the company is also duty bound to protect the identity of the other employee.

No...but most are getting that way. I hate to say it, but the bosses that are jerks had to become that way due to the employees before you. 30+ years ago the workforce was interested and placed the family as number 1 priority, today they don't care so much about the family as long as you showed up for work when your scheduled and be on time on top of it!!! However...employees abused that to the degree that different corporations were losing money as well as putting a strain on the employee due to people calling in. I know it's unfair to treat great employees the same as the other employees who are not as good, but if you give to one you got to give to all. I work for the state in the nursing field, and where I work the facility use to pay for employees to go school to get their LPN/RN or even a phyc degree as long as they stayed at the facility for 5 years. They stopped paying for schooling about 8 years ago when a employee went to school to get his RN degree...after he got it he quit and went to another facility...to make it short...he got a free degree and the state ended up paying it all!!! So they stopped paying for continuing in schooling. Life in getting that way in general...we are paying for the other persons mistake! We don't want to get involued....we know of people doing things wrong all the time, but we don't want to say anything (including myself). I know people driving around without licenses/insurance, shoplifts and I know people abusing free services as well...the bottom line why my car insurance is high, is because I'm paying for the ones that don't have. If I'm going to Walmart to buy something...I'm paying for the ones that steals, cause if nobody steals the price would be lower then what it is now. So the bottom line is that bosses will almost have to be jerks...not because of you personally, but because of the ones before you.

I'm not sure if they can do that but I would talk to the person in charge of Human Resources. There should be a department for that if you work with a large company, I'm not sure where you would go otherwise.

Talk to someone in HR regarding your question. \n\nIt depends on the policies of the company you work with.

Yes !.(A person can have multiple H1, but can work for only one company at a time.)

I believe that can only happen if the company you're working for has written guidelines dictating the permissibility of such practices.  The best way to find out would be to check with management regarding company policies (most companies will have a written list they hand out to new employees regarding such matters).  If something like that isn't given out, then I would assume (from personal experience) that it's ok, but best kept discreet.  I've had several relationships that originated in the work place and never had repercussions from any of them.  Best to check with management though.

If this had been a contract with the company, then you could have sued for breach of contract and they would no doubt have been glad to settle out of court.  The problem is, you were subcontracted and your agency was the employer. Just put it down to experience.  It won't show up on your cv and you wouldn't want to work for such horrible people anyway.

Start at your local Legal Aid.  They should be listed in the phone book.  If not, try a local shelter or city council to recommend or refer you to an agency.  Please do yourself a favor and stop using his name.  This will only hurt you in the long run.  You are walking a fine line in the ethics department, and legally, it might go against you to put this guys name on the internet.  Calm down and do things in a manner that will help you, rather than cause you more pain. Actually, your employer should support you in this matter.  That why they are required to carry insurance on employees.
