There is no penalty. No law compels former employers to answer.
Employers are NOT restricted in making factual comments on former employers. They are liable only if they make knowingly false statements. Prospective employers can ask about your former job, too.
The former slaves either stayed with their masters. But they didn't say they were slaves, they are now employers of their old master. The employers got paid a higher amount.
There are no federal laws restricting what information an employer can disclose about former employees. If you were fired or terminated from employment, the company can say so. They can also give a reason. For example, if someone was fired for stealing or falsifying a time sheet, they can explain why the employee was terminated. That said, because of laws regarding defamation (which is slander or libel) companies are usually careful about what information they provide to hiring managers confirming employment or checking references. What they say has to be the truth or the company can be subject to a lawsuit from the former employee. Legally, they can say anything that is factual and accurate. Concern about lawsuits is why most employers only confirm dates of employment, your position, and salary. State labor laws vary, so check your state labor department website for information on state labor laws that limit what employers can disclose about former employees.

The Occupational Safety and Health Act (OSHA) in the United States requires employers to provide a safe and healthy work environment for their employees. This law outlines specific standards and regulations that employers must follow to protect the health and safety of their workers.
Some employers think this policy is bad for employee morale.
Here in the States, potential employers are not allowed to ask how the former employment was terminated. They can only seek character references. No law prohibits employers from giving thorough info on former employees to anyone who inquires. Former employees have zero expectation of privacy regarding their work record, attendance, attitude, skill, or disciplines. EMployers who express no falsehoods about a former employee have zero liability for defamation.
