    Default Can an Employer Tell People Why You Were Suspended

    A school teacher was suspended from her job, and her employer subsequently contacted a large number of other school districts around the state and told them why she was placed on administrative leave. Is that permitted?

    Default Re: Can an Employer Tell People Why You Were Suspended

    With very few exceptions, such as your leaving for a confidential medical reason, an employer can tell anybody why you were suspended or fired -- as long as the explanation is truthful. If the teacher is in a union, the union rep can review the situation to see if the employer's actions violate a collective bargaining agreement. If this is a public school and the teacher is not in a union, the teacher can check state civil service laws for any restrictions.
