Grounds For Termination?

Does an employer have the right to terminate an employee if the employee is discovered to be discussing his or her wages to other fellow employees?

Yes, they do.

Sorry, CheeseBlotto, but you're wrong this time. Discussing one's wages is a protected activity under the NLRB. An employee cannot be fired for discussing HIS OWN wages with another employee.

However, while I can tell Beth what I make and Patty can tell me what she makes, if Patty tells Beth what I make, Patty can be fired.

 

[CheeseBlotto]

My apologies to the OP. I stand corrected.

if Patty tells Beth what I make, Patty can be fired.

Uh-oh. Better keep my mouth shut then.
