Legal Answers
Q. I live in ohio and make $13 per hour as a barista. My boss allows me to keep cash tips but not digital tips
A: Good morning, this practice may be unlawful. I would recommend speaking with an attorney about this. Feel free to give our office a call - we'd be happy to discuss it with you. 614 610 9755.
Q. Does a employer in Ohio have the right to mandate face mask to be worn? Never shut down or worn masks until now
A: Generally, yes. Employers can require the usage of PPE to protect employees against the spread of COVID-19. Is the employer singling you out by requesting that only you wear one? Is there a specific reason you do not wish to wear one, like a religious reason, for example?
Q. I was working for amazon when I came down with symptoms for COVID-19. Can I sue then for wrongful termination?
A: When did Amazon let you go? What was the reason for termination?
