Legal Question in Employment Law in New York
I made an agreement with someone that I would house sit for $200 a week, until all the houses were sold. They paid 3 years on the house and owed 3 years. They told the police that they didnt know me for 2 years. now the first judge put me out for 3 weeks then the second judge put me back in the apartment. 1 year 8 months later, we go back to the first judge who knows that Mazalot said he didnt know me. I brought the minutes from the second judge saying that they in fact gave me a job. Sanctions made them tell the truth bringing them a case with no merrit plus perjury, and the first judge still found them in good faith, and I had to leave the apartment. Altho it has been suggested that this ruling could make all housesitters prohibitively expensive, it is in fact likely to have more impact on agencies' profitability than on sitters themselves. the Natural Minimum Wage Act 1998, in anticipation of shady employers looking for loopholes in the legislation, was one of the most tightly drafted acts of parliment there has ever been. ' Agency Wokers ' are expressly protected by the act.the fact that what housesitters do may not seem to amount work, makes very little diffrence. Therefore, any task pleasant or undemanding, that person made a contract to do the desired work. So with this in closing, I turned down a offer that the company tried to give me. For this reason being so, I did thid because i was unlawfully mistreated off the job premisses and was not giving my rightfull Severance pay. And upon my review, the severance pay law clearly states that, Severance benefits are payments made to
employees upon the termination of
employment. Employers may choose to pay
severance benefits under a number of
circumstances, including workforce
reductions, plant closings, mergers and
acquisitions, incentives for early
retirement programs, or in exchange for a
general release of claims to discourage
terminated employees from suing the company.
Severance benefits may include salary and
health benefit continuation, outplacement
counseling, accelerated vesting of stock
options or rights to purchase stock, bonus
payments, and forgiveness of loans.
Severance benefits may be paid pursuant to a
formal severance plan regulated by ERISA or
may be offered as an informal severance
package. Employees who are offered severance
benefits should be asked to sign a general
release of all claims against their
employer, and if the employee is 40 years of
age or older, the release must comply with
the Age Discrimination in Employment Act
(ADEA) and the Older Workers' Benefits
Protection Act (OWBPA).
