What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? california
I'm looking for advice on the following situation.
Employer wants employee to work off the clock, unpaid.
---Employee refuses
Employer threatens to fire employee
---Employee threatens to call Labor Board
Employer suspends employee for multiple days without pay.
---Employee returns to work after suspension.
Employer demands employee sign documents containing several FALSE allegations of misconduct.
---Employee refuses.
Employer threatens to fire employee if employee doesn't sign.
---Employee refuses and asks for copies of documents.
Employer refuses to provide copies and suspends employee for multiple days without pay.
---Employee returns to work.
Employer asks employee if they are ready to sign documents.
---Employee refuses to sign any false statement.
Employer terminates employee.
There is a witness to the fact that the employer wanted the employee to work off the clock and that the employer became angry when the employee refused but not witness to the following events. This witness is potentially unreliable as they are deathly afraid of losing their job. It is not uncommon for the employer to require employees to work off the clock but there is no documentary proof.
Is this something the Labor Board would take an interest in, seeing as how there is no concrete proof?
If the Labor Board did take up the matter what would they do?
What might be the best outcome for the terminated employee?
