California Is the state , but the laws on tribal land fall under federal laws .
I work in management for a Nor cal indian casino. Times are slow i understand , so upper management decides that we need to cut our budget 30%. We work in the public safety side of the casino. We do not generate money for the company . We are looked at more that other departments to make cuts.
This is how they are doing it. We have 85 Officers that work for my department. Out of the 85 ,half or more has worked for the company for more that Five years. My boss decides we need to cut the budget by changing our job description. We must preform a physical agility test. We had 2 mounts to get in shape or get out. This is pass or fail one chance test. We do not run in our job or fight fires. We work in smoke and do not do much physical activity. The test includes running a timed mile , pushups , crunches , and a sit and reach exercise. All are timed and broken down into age gropes. More time is given to the females than the males.
Human resources , told us in a meeting that this will cut coast, if our officers are in shape and don't have to go to the doctor.
Is this legal ?
We are loosing older officers and one with knees problems. They cant run the mile. One employees has work for the company for ten years. He is a manager and is in good standings with the company. he cant pass the test so they offered him a job to drive bus for 18 dollars an hour less than what he makes.
Any advice will helpWhat is the name of your state (only U.S. law)?
