  3 0 You have a right to "inspect" your personnel file (even if you are a former employee). That file must be made available to you "locally". Most companies will simply give you a copy; others comply only with the letter of the law and will allow you to come and "inspect" in a conference room. In terms of the legality of the conduct, the company had an obligation to take prompt and effective remedial action in response to your assault allegation. If it failed to do so, they may have "ratified" the assault and, thereby, face liability. Obviously, this is WAY more complicated and depends on various facts. This does not constitute legal advice and there is no attorney-client relationship here on Questionland. Alex J. Higgins answered in Legal 8 months ago | Report 1 comment by freikja… 0 0 Thank you!

  3 0 Sounds like a terrible situation, I am sorry. This is your best resource for information on your right to access your file: http://www.lni.wa.gov/WorkplaceRights/Wages/PayReq/PersonnelRec/default.asp Basically you have a legal right to inspect your file at least once per year.

He was a wheelchair-bound but very strong 89 year-old who put me in a headlock, then snuck his hand underneath my bra and groped my breast. It took about two minutes to pry his fingers off and disengage. But still, pretty fucked up. Thanks for the link! freikja commented 8 months ago | Report Enter your comment or ask a new question preview THIS IS A PREVIEW: Click "Post" to submit it or "Edit" to make changes. edit Please wait… This could take a minute if the tubes are clogged.

  1 0 I know that I can request a copy of my personal file from my employer, I guess it even includes the background check they did on me. You may have the same privilege. I'd say just request it from your HR person, you shouldn't need to indicate why you want it. Just say it's for your personal files. internet_jen answered in Legal 8 months ago | Report 1 comment by RacerX… 0 0 seconded -- no need to tip your hand. Even those laminated workplace posters say you get to inspect once a year. Bring a digital camera with you in case they say - " okay, here, now, in the board room, you have 5 minutes, Go."
