My wife, (and sveral others),was "laid off" from her company Friday.
It is assumed that the company's actions were premeditated and carefully planned.
The relationship between my wife and her employer was such that they were aware that we were in the process of making the bold financial step of purchasing our first home.
Even with planned lay-offs, the company did not allude that any jobs were to be eliminated.
Ethically and morally, it seems that it would have been prudent for company officials to advise my wife of their plans prior to us purchasing the home.
We would not have done it, had we known her job would be eliminated the day our first mortgage payment was due. The unexpected action has put us in a financial bind, unecessarily.
Do we have any recourse against her employer?
