What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Pennsylvania
This past week I was subjected to threats against myself from a fellow employee specific to my work. I immediatly reported the incident to my employer who ran an investigation. I was told that threats were ligitamate and the employee was removed from the job site (not yet terminated). I was then told during the interview the individual brought up past incidents of violations of company policy (non-violent and unrelated to this issue)by myself and other employees. I believe the individual and my employer have retaliated against for filing the claim. On Friday I was removed from the work place and fully expect to be terminated for one of the incidents. I believe my employer should have recognized the allegations as retaliation since they alledged complaints were never reported as required by company policy until after my filing a workplace violence report and the subsequent investigation was a violation of my OSHA rights and the company's own policy on reporting workplace violence with fear of reprisal.
