Legal Answers
Q. What can union do for terminated nurse over incident?
A: Thank you for reaching out and providing those details. Based on the information you've shared, it sounds like there may be multiple issues at play, including potential violations of your wife’s rights under her union contract and questions around due process during her termination.

Union representation is typically responsible for ensuring that disciplinary procedures—including investigations and terminations—are conducted in accordance with the collective bargaining agreement. This often includes the right to union representation during investigatory and disciplinary meetings (commonly referred to as Weingarten rights), as well as the right to challenge disciplinary actions through a grievance or arbitration process.

We’d be happy to speak with you in more detail about the situation to better understand the facts and advise you on the best course of action. Please contact our office at 310-826-6300 your earliest convenience so we can schedule a time to discuss your wife’s case further.

We look forward to assisting you.

Q. Employer demoting me due to lifting restriction. Can they do this?
A: Thank you for reaching out and providing details about your situation. Based on what you've described, there may be potential issues involving disability discrimination, failure to accommodate, and possibly retaliation under both state and federal employment laws.

Whether your employer is legally permitted to impose additional restrictions, overlook your internal applications, or force a demotion with significant loss in pay depends on several factors, including your medical documentation, the company's interactive process (if any), and how your job functions were evaluated.

To fully assess the merits of your claims and determine the best course of action, we encourage you to contact our office directly at 310-826-6300. We’d be happy to speak with you in more detail and provide guidance specific to your circumstances.

We look forward to hearing from you.
