What is the name of your state? Pennsylvania
There's some sort of situation going on at work where the company has it's attorneys coming in to our site to talk and ask questions to each individual employee. Nobody has any clue what their meeting will be about. The HR rep on site was asked by an employee last week if they needed an attorney present for the meeting and was told no. These meetings apparently have something to do with either a harrassment claim introduced by an employee against someone within the building OR it was said that the company received a report through the confidential ethics line it has setup trying to determine if anyone in our group did in fact send/call the line. So much for reporting an incident and remaining confidential!
This, to me, sounds as if it's more serious than what is being said and that a lawyer should in fact be present with the employee being questioned. I plan on taking in a covert recording device and recording all that is said. The reason for this is that way back early in my employment I was injured on the job and was told by management that I would be fired if I ever got hurt again. That in and of itself was illegal according to the rules of OSHA. I just do not trust this company and it's agents and want to be covered in case something is said or done that will affect my employment.
Thoughts?
