What is the name of your state? New York
I decided to work at Company far away from my home due to their flexibility for me to work at home 5 days a week. A year later, I was offered a new title but now limited to working at home 2 days a week. This month I received an email from my supervisor that I am now required to work 5 days a week at the office.
My issues:
- My supervisor cannot provide just reasons as to why my arrangements changed
- My job decription and title is unchanged
- I've never abused this benefit. Always answered emails and phone calls even after work hours. No complaints from others.
- Excellent performance review
- I only accepted this job due to the flexibility for me to work at home
- Negotiated my base salary lower due to the lack of commuting expenses and tax benefits working at home
- Co-worker living in same area as me still has the ability to work at home and has same job description.
- Was told it was a "new company policy", however I am singled out.
Do I have any legal rights as an employee? I feel I was hired under false pretenses and left a great job because of stated benefits of working at home.
Thanks in advance!
