verbal warnings
Find answers to your legal question.





verbal warnings

My company has a policy that will give a verbal warning that will last for twelve months then expire, so that if you commit the same or similar offence in that timeframe then they have grounds to take things further. I had one such warning nearly three years ago and have discovered that this is actually still kept on my written record and will always remain there. Is it legal to keep a written record of a verbal warning, particularly one that has long since expired? This record is something that will affect my chances of jobs within the company and also my employee reference should I leave, so I would like it taken off. When I questioned this I was told that it shows as being expired and was in the policy rules that it should always be there, but I disagree as the very meaning of the word verbal has been lost

Former employers aren't allowed to say anything about you period except dates of employment unless you gave a specific persons name to be used as a reference. Matter of fact, because of Dept. of Labor lawsuits, most companies only have a job verification line (usually 900 number) that only give dates of hire.
