Sexual Harassment

Sexual harassment is not permitted in the workplace. There are a number of Tennessee State laws and Federal laws that prevent such types of harassment. Sexual harassment in the workplace occurs when an employee is subjected to unwanted comments, touching, or requests of a sexual nature.

Wrongful Termination

Most employment in the State of Tennessee is considered “at will”. “At Will” employment means that your employer can fire you for any reason or no reason at all, so long as the reason is not illegal. A termination may be wrongful if it is based on improper motives.

Employment Discrimination

Discrimination in the workplace is not permitted under Tennessee State law or Federal law. This can include discrimination in hiring, firing, or terms and conditions of employment. Some forms of illegal discrimination include: discrimination based on age, race, gender, age, or disability. An employee may not be discriminated against for filing a workers’ compensation claim, for complying with a lawfully issued subpoena, or for other certain whistleblower-type conduct. An employer may be liable for improper discrimination where the employee suffers an adverse employment action and the basis for that action is discriminatory.
