Legal Question in Civil Rights Law in Michigan

Employment Discrimination

was assaulted twice by a co-worker who remains employed. I filed assault charges with the police department and the matter is being prosecuted. I submitted a letter of resignation after being assaulted the second time, and was transferred to another position in a different building. However, the position is much different and I was denied a job description of the current position. Previously I supported 3 physicians. In the current position I have supported up to 5 physicians, and 7 fellows, a Chief, and a Manager. Do I have a case against my employer?

Re: Employment Discrimination

You most likely do not have a case against the employer. There is no right to be treated fairly in employment situations. If an employer violates a civil rights law or some basic public policy, you may have a claim. However, in your case your situation is that your employer is treating you unfairly as you are being punished instead of the wrongdoer. There is no protection. William S. Stern
