Wrongful Termination from a Five Below Store
If you work at a Five Below Store, you may understand how important it is to work with a good attitude towards your customers. It is important to ensure your customers come into the store, and have a good experience with the discounts and customer service offered in a Five Below Store. But if you are wrongfully terminated, you may be surprised to learn that there are certain conditions that the employer cannot terminate you legally.
For example, it is a case of potential wrongful termination if you are fired or terminated because of discrimination, based on:
Religious Discrimination –
Title VII, Executive Order 11246
Age Discrimination –
Age discrimination in the Employment Act
Disability Discrimination –
Americans with Disabilities Act
Sex Discrimination –
Equal Pay Act (pay only), Title VII, Pregnancy Act
National Origin Discrimination –
Title VII, Section 1961, Executive Order 11246
Racial Discrimination –
Title VII, Section 1961, Executive Order 11246
For this reason, a Five Below Store cannot fire you from your job because of a situation where you are being actively or passively discriminated on at the store. If you are in the situation where you are being discriminated on by the manager, supervisor, boss or owner of a Five Below Store, then you need to give our law office a call. We are here to assist you, in the case that you are being discriminated against and treated unfairly at a Five Below Store.
Hostile Work Environment
A hostile work environment is any work venue where you do not feel comfortable coming into work each day to do your job. If you are being forced to work in a hostile work environment at a Five Below Store, you may have experienced:
- Being overloaded with work, more than other workers
- Being given unreasonable deadlines to meet
- Constantly changing deadlines
- Isolation from others
- Unfair treatment in relation to workplace entitlements (leave or training)
- Bullying from other workers
Workplace Injury
If you work at a Five Below Store, you may be injured stocking the shelves, lifting heavy boxes, or from a slip and fall from poor conditions on the store floor. If you do take a tumble at a Five Below Store, you will have a workplace injury to deal with at that time. If this is the case, your employer is not able to fire you just for being injured on the job.
On the contrary, the employer needs to offer to you workers’ compensation, which will pay for your medical bills. You will have medical bills which should not have to be paid out of your own pocket, if you are injured at work. You will be eligible for workers’ compensation if you are injured on the job at Five Below Store.
Workers’ Compensation
You may have access to workers’ compensation benefits, but the company may be slow in getting those benefits to you. If this is the case, then you may want to give us a call. You will start to get lost wages from being wrongfully discharged, and your bills from being injured will not wait to be paid. That is the reason you need to call us first off, and not wait for that initial reaching out to us on these types of cases.
