Negligence in the workplace can occur for various reasons and leads to profound concerns including safety issues, work related incidents or accidents, injuries, and much more.  Both employees and employers may face serious consequences and be held liable for negligent hiring, retention, and supervision.  Cases involving negligent firing and hiring are most often caused by wrongful termination, discrimination, or retaliation.  Negligent supervision is usually a safety concern because not having a qualified supervisor present can lead to accidents or serious injuries.  If you believe you may have been a victim or a witness to negligence in the workplace, it is crucial that you make a record of the situation and report it immediately.  Internal and external divisions are put in place to handle these issues, however speaking to an experienced Minnesota employment and labor law attorneys can not only help you understand what your legal rights are but can make certain that your rights and your co-workers’ rights are fully protected.
