When an employee does personal business on a computer while he or she is at work what are they stealing?
The employee is essentially stealing wages from the employer because the employee is getting paid for not doing work for the employer.
Does an employer have the right to tell clients when an employee is terminated for stealing from other clients?
Truth is an affirmative defense to any claim of defamation. If the employee was, in fact, stealing from other clients, barring any contract or local law stating otherwise, the employer is completely within their rights to do this.
If an employee gives free food away in a restaurant can the employer make them pay for it?
I am pretty sure that they "should" pay for it. I am totally all for that it is stealing and cheating money from the employer. I believe they should be fired and should be taken to court. I mean they are stealing and cheating. I don't know what you think but if my employee was cheating money off of me, I would be VERY unhappy!
My son was fired for stealing a pair of underwear. He returned them and paid for them but was terminated. Can the employer discuss why he was fired with other employees?
Certainly. An employer has no liability for defamation unless it broadcasts falsehoods about a person. Broadcasting facts about an employee's firing violates no law.
Is an employee liable for taxes withheld but not submitted by the employer to the IRS?
No...the employer...both corporate and personally is responsible. This is a criminal and fraudulent act that will be pursued by tax and legal authorities vigorously. The penalties are sever and jail time is common. The employer is stealing US Government trust funds....a very bad thing.
Can you collect unemployment if you were fired for an outside shoplifting charge?
The answer to this question is not as absolute as one might think. In Minnesota, an applicant for unemployment benefits is not automatically denied compensation if fired for stealing. Just because an employer says an employee was terminated for stealing does not mean the employee was in fact stealing. The first issue is whether or not theft was the cause for termination. If yes, it is critical to examine whether or not theft can be proven. If the employee in fact intentionally stole from their employer, misrepresenting this fact can lead to fraud, overpayment of unemployment benefits, and criminal prosecution. If the employee did not steal from their employer, then the fact that an employer claims theft should be challenged. The third issue is what was stolen. The fourth issue is what was the value of the property stolen. In Minnesota, the answers to these questions determine whether or not the employee was involved with aggravated employment misconduct. Given the severity of this issue and because it is not necessarily black and white, consider seeking an opinion from an attorney.

Is employer liable if employee gets injured by falling debris. I was injured when a fellow employee tried to pull a heavy box from the top of a rolling shelf that I was instructed to sit next to?
Your employer is liable for ALL injuries that happen to employees "in the course and scope of employment". "In the course" means during the period you are clocked in and subject to the employer's direction. NOT before or after work or while away from the workplace at lunch. "In the scope" means while performing your assigned duties - not while fighting or stealing or picketing.
Does an employer have the right to tell an employee of a recent termination and as to why the employee was terminated?
Laws may vary, but, generally, yes as long as they do not detail why the firing took place. Employers may tell ANYONE why you were fired, as long as they do not lie. "We investigated and fired Bob for stealing from the cash register" causes the employer no liability if that is why they fired you. It does not matter if you DID steal, or if you think the investigation was unfair, only that stealing was their reason.
