Work Accidents

If you are injured while on the job, the first most and most important thing you must do is to advice your employer of the injury as soon as possible. Even if you initially think that the injury is not serious, it is important that you let your employer know about the incident. By law, you are required to report the work place incident to your employer within 30 days of the accident

Labor Code 132a

employers may fire an employee if they have good cause or no cause, but they can’t fire someone for a bad cause. A bad cause would be because they’re acting in a way that is discriminatory, retaliating for whistleblowing by an employee, because an employee refuses to break the law, or for other reasons. If you believe that you were wrongfully terminated, contact a Phoenix labor and employment lawyer to evaluate your potential claim
