What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? North Carolina
My mother lives in a very small rural town. She has been employeed by a local doctor for almost 3 years. Last week he gave her her paycheck, then told her that it was her last day. He gave her no reason why. Here is some additional information around this situation: She is 63. He made a comment to her (and a witness) that he can get a tax credit for everyone he hires this year. He also made comments such as "do you know how much more I have to pay for your insurance over all the other employees" (he pays half of her insurance costs). She has had 1 review, which occured over a year ago. She has never had any disciplinary issues. She is hourly, but only gets paid for 40 hours nothing more, but less if she works less than 40 (she has copies of her timecards that show her working more than 40 hours). What should she do?
