Getting Fired: What to Do If You Are Fired, Downsized, Laid Off Terminated or Forced to Resign
Reviewer/Reader Feedback: "Nobody wants to need Stephen Mitchell Sack's new book, but everyone should. Anyone can be fired, anytime. Sack was sacked, unfairly, from his first job out of law school. It must have ticked him off, because he's become the adviser of the pink-slipped population. His book explains when to call a lawyer if you're fired and gives an overview of U.S. laws protecting employees from discrimination and unfair dismissal. Despite the necessary legal lingo, the author keeps it readable. He warns you to prepare for dismissal before it ever happens and shows that simple record keeping can boost your severance package. From sample letters to a list of relevant government agencies, this is one handy manual for the let-go, downsized, or dismissed."
Fired, Down-Sized, or Laid-Off: What Your Employer Doesn't Want You to Know About How to Fight Back
Reviewer/Reader Feedback: "If you buy one book to help you if you're fired, I recommend this one without hesitation. I found the advice and recommendations invaluable. In a coherent, sensible approach, Mr. Sklover's experience shows through. At times he seemed to read my mind as he methodically covered my concerns as well as introduced topics that had not occurred to me. He translated the legal jargon into plain English, rendering the advice both understandable and useful. The list of more than 100 negotiating points is alone worth the price of the book. I think "this is the one" on this topic."
Your Rights at the Work Place: The Things Your Boss Won't Tell You
Reviewer/Reader Feedback: "The book, "Your Rights at the Workplace - The Things Your Boss Won't Tell You", shows how to identify on-the-job discrimination or harassment and offers legal suggestions for dealing with it. Author and practicing civil rights attorney Leo James Terrell examines workplace situations that include on African American engineer whose complaints of verbal harassment by coworkers and supervisors are ignored by management; and a highly qualified registered nurse who's passed over for a promotion in favor of a colleague involved with the boss. Through case studies like these, Terrell illustrates the "snares, traps and pitfalls your employers can use to oppress and otherwise shatter your life at work."

Useful for me as I negotiated severance and letters of recommendation...something that my employer really didn't want to do." |
