E. Fired for Attempting to Unionize, Complaining about Health or Safety Violations, or for Legal Off-Premises Conduct

The National Labor Relations Act prohibits the firing of any employee because of her involvement in union activity, because of filing charges, or because of testifying pursuant to the act. Contact the closest regional office of the National Labor Relations Board if you believe you were fired for any of these reasons.

If you were fired for banding together to protest wages, hours, or working conditions, contact your nearest OSHA office for assistance. Federal OSHA law prohibits employers from firing you in retaliation for asserting safety and related violations.
