I Reported a Company safety issue to DOT and am now on Suspension

[onearmedman]

Several questions. One, are you suspended with or without pay? Two, what reason did they give you? Three, What time frame did they give you? Four Did they say if it was pending an investigation or just punishment? If you can, get it in writing... The answers to these question could become very important in the future. Get online and read about the whistleblowers act and see what pertains to you.

They are taking the path of "disqualifying" me from driving, while saying they will find me "something to do" in the production plant. I suppose they want me to bail. Not gonna happen. I'm not going quietly.

only in Oklahoma would your company be arrogant enough to suspend you for that. To bad for you... we have gutless labor laws and a state system that won't stand up for the working man (or woman).

Hire a labor lawyer... you will need it.

As long as our brethern here continue to elect the type of people to the State offices like last session, we will see the rights of working people continue to be eroded, in the name of tort reform, in the name of "business development."

You guys think it only happens to other people. Only "other people" are hurt on the job. Only "other people" are in wrecks. Only "other people" get screwed by their employers. Only "other people" are hurt by negligent doctors.

When the Hell will you realize you are the "other people?'

I agree with JB on this

Look at all the good things that happen with getting rid of all the unions for non uniformed city workers.Wow good thing they passed that. That really helped things out alot

If it is a union shop they would just "negotiate" it away to benefit some slackazz buttboi.

Get a lawyer.

I see a lot of jobs for CDL drivers. Might be the right time to start looking anyhow.

What they did to you was ass. I'd seek counsel.

Seriously though, get a lawyer and I hope it works out for you.
