Summary
In Michigan, workplace harassment and retaliation are serious legal issues. Harassment that is reported and not addressed can lead to legal action. Retaliation for reporting harassment is illegal under both state and federal law. Privacy invasion claims depend on company policies and whether the messages were work-related. Since the messages were not work-related, privacy invasion could be a concern if company policies were breached. Additionally, reporting serious issues like metal contamination in baby formula is crucial and may involve public safety concerns. To build a legal case, document all incidents, gather evidence, review company policies, and consult with a lawyer to evaluate the evidence and decide on legal action.Full Conversation
My company hired my ex as my boss. I asked my lab department manager if this was a conflict of interest and she said no. I was intimidated by my lab department manager and she tampered with my review. My ex continously harrassed me at work and I reported it many times. Then a coworker complained about my teams messegaes and said they were unusual. I had a meeting with my lab department manager and HR where they asked me about the messages which I felt was an invasion of my privacy. After that I told my lab department manager that I was going to report this to Employee Relations. After I did, she suspended me six hours later.
