You Can't Be Fired For What Happens Outside Of Work Or Can You?

You Can't Be Fired For What Happens Outside Of
Work. Or Can You?

2
As an employee, it is your job to behave properly
and follow certain rules at your workplace.
However, that does not mean that you can go crazy
as soon as you clock out. If you thought that
your off-work behavior cannot cost you your job,
think again. It is no secret that more and more
employers started paying attention to their
employees and their activities off-work. In some
cases, your outside-work activities may decide
whether or not you will get the job. So the main
question is Can you lose your job for your
off-work activities?

Be Careful What You Post On Social Media
Most people use social media to post photos,
share videos, and their opinions on many
different subjects. Sometimes, people may
complain about their work, and how they were
treated at their workplace

Your employer (or the company you work for) can
easily see your post, and choose to take actions
against you if the post was in any way
discriminatory. There are cases of wrongful
termination. It is only normal that your employer
may take something out of the context and act
against you for no reason. If this happens, reach
out to the wrongful termination attorneys in Los
Angeles and let them know what happened. They
will help you file a lawsuit against your
employer.

So is it safe to post on social media about your
job? The answer is NO. Never use Twitter or
Facebook to complain about your work or your
employer. If they find out what you are doing,
they may use it to terminate you. Be careful what
you post on social media.

Taking Paid leave? Do not abuse it.

In case of an emergency, you are by law eligible
to receive FMLA if you fulfilled the requirements
for paid leave. However, do not think that you
can abuse the leave and do whatever you like.
FMLA is only related to a medical emergency
leave, and if you faked or lied to your employer
in order to get some time off, you may be in big
trouble if he finds out. Did you know that many
companies/employers hire a private investigator
to follow their employees while on FMLA? In case
the investigator finds anything out of the
ordinary, you will most likely face termination.

Off-work Activity Can Be A Reason For
Termination

• The answer is yes you can get terminated for
  your off-work activities. Lets say you commit a
  criminal activity while off work. Your employer
  can use this knowledge and terminate you, as he
  or she may not want to hire criminals.
