Workplace discrimination and work comp-what reference will employer give?



I've been an RN for 14 years, a Charge nurse, and always received excellent evaluations. 16 yrs in medical field prior to that. The last 4 yrs have been a nightmare.

I was injured at work, yet continued working with the chronic pain for the next 10yrs. My condition got worse, but I did a good job, and did not miss work.
I'm a single parent and had to work. I restricted my outside life severely in order to be able to stay at work.

Our new supervisor began targeting and harassing people, and eventually it was my turn. She has had many complaints against her, but nothing is ever done. It's a state facility and no one seems to care.

She began transferring me all over the hospital, 6 times in 22 months, left me there until I learned the area, then yanked me and moved me again. I was the only nurse she did this to.
I was re-injured in 2002.
I still kept working although the chronic pain was much worse and underwent experimental treatment to help. It helped some, then she


Answers:


1From what you describe, I would say that your supervisor was harassing you for no good reason.

If you are a member of a union organization, work through them to file a suit against her.

If you are independently employed, hire a lawyer and sue the hospital administration for harassment by managerial personnel.

You don't deserve or should you accept this type of treatment. Fight back with all of the power you have.
