Your husband got fired they said they have a week to pay him is this true?
The people who fired your husband will make a deal on how to pay him after he's fired.
Can your previous employer tell an employer that you were terminated?
There is NO federal law on this; it is a state-by-state issue. Never can an employer be sued for telling the truth, "Pat was fired 15 days ago", since that's true. In many states, a former employer cannot be subject to a suit for defamation for revealing even more details to a prospective employer. A growing trend is to extend "privilege" to the former employer for anything it says about your performance, attendance, or skill. Privileged communication means no defamation suit is possible. Washington employers gained that privilege last year. Check your state rules.

What can be done if your manager talks trash about you to a employer you are about to apply for Nothing she said is true and you find out that the employer will not hire you for what was said?

Can a job tell another job why you were fired?
Yes, and it maybe a way for the employer to show that certain behaviors will not be tolerated, so take notice. Such a revelation by the employer cannot be defamation, since the employer is speaking the truth: "We fired Bob for sexual harassment after a careful investigation" IS the truth ... "Bob committed sexual harassment" might not be true.
Can your former employer say you were fired?
Legally no, the worse thing a previous employer can say is "I have no comment on that person"It is a common fallacy that a previous employer cannot divulge that the employee was fired. It is not illegal for the previous employer to state the employee was fired and in most cases the reason for the firing, as long as it is a true statement. What a previous employer cannot do is make such accusations as the employee was fired for theft or other criminal act unless that employee has been charged and found guilty of the offense.Addition:You will have to check the laws in your state, but in general there is no law against an employer giving information about you including that you were fired. In general this is a bad practice since it opens an employer up to a lawsuit for defamation if the employer gave out false information that damaged you, i.e. prevented you from getting a job. Also, some information is considered defamatory per se such as accusing you of a crime. But truth is also always a defense to any defamation lawsuit.Yes.Most employers will not do this to avoid defamation of character suits something that may be interpreted differently by another party or by stating something that may not be true.A vast majority of employers will give dates of employment and position held even with your signed release.
What are previous employers allowed to say to other employers inquiring about you and can they reveal that you've been fired in the state of Ohio?
If a prospective employer calls your previous employer, the previous employer can say whatever they feel is true. If you don't want a bad reference, you may not want to put your previous employer on the application.

It depends on what she or he said. When a Manager or Supervisor calls your former employee for a reference, they are suppose to ask your former employee will you hire this person again, your former employee only suppose to say Yes or No.
