No. It is a direct violation of the fair debt collection law for the creditor to contact the place of business of a non-debtor in regards to debt owed by a relative. A creditor can only discuss the debt with the debtor, although he can contact family members once to obtain information such as the debtor's current address.
Please be advised, if the family member is a cosigner in relation to the debt, he or she is a co-debtor and the creditor can contact the co-debtor at his or her place of employment until they are informed by the employee that they cannot.

What can a creditor do if you are in default on a credit card?
A creditor can turn you over to collections and report you to the credit reporting agencies. Depending on what type of credit card you are talking about, the creditor can also demand return of items purchased on the card (such as an appliance store account). If you are getting harassing phone calls at home or work (yes, they are allowed to call you at work), you can send them a written letter stating that you no longer want them to call you at home or work (sent via registered mail with return receipt). The creditor would then be allowed to call you one more time to verify receipt of your letter. Creditors are also not allowed to call you before 7am or after 9pm. Due to privacy isses, creditors are not allowed to tell your employer or others not listed on the credit account why they are calling.
Can you still be called at work concerning a debt or is this now considered harassment?
A creditor can contact a debtor at work unless these calls are prohibited by the employer or the creditor has been told not to call debtor at work. You can also contact the creditor, in writing, to request that all calls cease and all communication be done by mail. Then the creditor will be able to contact you one more time to let you know phone calls will be discontinued. The first answer was right on the money, but remember, it HAS TO BE IN WRITING for the debt collector to be forced to comply.
