Legal Answers
Q. Can an employer refuse to pay for travel time between appointments? What about time between if not traveling?
A: It sounds like ABA company's refusal to pay for travel time violates the law. Generally, travel as part of a principal activity, such as travel from job site to job site during the workday, must be counted as hours worked and must be paid. However, more information is necessary to analyze whether there is a legal violation. If you have additional questions or would like to discuss the claim, you can contact me directly via phone or email.
Q. Is there a way to prevent being let go due to performance after announcing that I am pregnant?
A: In an at-will state like New York, you can be terminated for any reason or no reason. Announcing your pregnancy does not prohibit your employer for terminating your employment due to performance. However, if you are terminated and believe that your pregnancy played a factor in the decision to terminate you, you should contact an employment attorney to discuss your situation in detail.
Q. Can I take action against an employer when a manager guaranteed me an accommodation for a mental disability & retracted
A: You should follow the company's procedure for submitting a formal request for an accommodation to the company's HR department. The employer is required to review your request and engage in an interactive process with you to determine if there is an accommodation that will allow you to perform the essential functions of your job without causing undue burden to the company. If your employer denies the formal accommodation request and refuses to discuss other options with you, you should contact an employment attorney in your area to discuss your options.
