Yes. In fact, it is a violation of the federal Fair Debt Collection Practices Act for a debt collector to contact you at work if your employer disapproves and they are informed of this fact by you or your employer.

And then hang up. 99% of the time, that will take care of it.
"If a collector contacts you about a debt, you may want to talk to them at least once to see if you can resolve the matter - even if you don't think you owe the debt, can't repay it immediately, or think that the collector is contacting you by mistake. If you decide after contacting the debt collector that you don't want the collector to contact you again, tell the collector - in writing - to stop contacting you. Here's how to do that: Make a copy of your letter. Send the original by certified mail, and pay for a "return receipt" so you'll be able to document what the collector received. Once the collector receives your letter, they may not contact you again, with two exceptions: a collector can contact you to tell you there will be no further contact or to let you know that they or the creditor intend to take a specific action, like filing a lawsuit. Sending such a letter to a debt collector you owe money to does not get rid of the debt, but it should stop the contact. The creditor or the debt collector still can sue you to collect the debt. "
You can stop a debt collector from contacting you by tell them not to contact you again. Failure to honor your request would be a violation of the law.
