‘I am allowed to discuss wages’: Employee gets fired via email after she discusses her salary with coworkers, she uses the email in court as proof of HR's illegal actions
It seems like many companies and businesses have failed to understand that trying to micromanage and over-control their employees is not going to help their businesses prosper. Quite the contrary actually – if the employees are unhappy, and feel like they are being observed with every step they take, nothing good will come out of it. No matter how much employers try to make employees believe otherwise – they need their employees just as much as employees need them.
That is the thought process that guided the employee in this Reddit story to fight for her rights. After getting fired over an email for talking with other employees about her salary, OP (original poster) informed HR that firing her is in fact, illegal, and she will take them to court. HR decided to keep fighting back, and with that ensured OP that all their illegal actions were being written down.
