YOUR BASIC EMPLOYEE RIGHTS

Employment rights



Knowing or worse yet not knowing your basic employee rights is crucial to the success, failure and longevity of any career in the workplace. You must go into your new job armed with a plan for success.


Hello I'm Yancey, and as an employee, I designed this site to raise awareness, educate and share some of my genuine job experiences with fellow and potential employees.


After weeks or months of searching for and reviewing job descriptions online or in the local newspaper, you find the "perfect" job.


It has everything you want and you can hardly wait for the interview. Now you should patiently ask yourself...


  • Have I finished my investigation of this job?
  • Is it truly a good fit for me?
  • Do I know what to look for?
  • Do I even know what questions to ask?

Accepting a position with a company before taking the time to understand where you stand can be disastrous. What is the majority of employers best kept secret? YOUR BASIC EMPLOYEE RIGHTS! Educating yourself before, during and after an employment experience will be THE wisest career decision you will ever make.

Avoid the "Job Lob". This website discloses how to apply successfully on the job the information learned about your basic employee rights. My sincere desire is that you become skilled at what to avoid and enjoy a productive, positive workplace experience.



You win and so does the company. Oh by the way, "job lob" is my jargon for being scammed, cheated, tricked or setup. As they say in those murder mysteries, "I was framed!"


Claim your employee rights in the workplace from the day you walk in to the day you leave. With the proper knowledge, you will be better equipped to deal with things like…

  • workplace discrimination
  • getting fair pay
  • false sexual harassment claims
  • an employee background check


your basic employee rights



The employer may own the job don't let the employer own you! Years ago after making many mistakes in the workplace it became obvious the need to find out what protections we employees have involving issues like...


  • constructive discharge (ugh, sounds like a nasty medical condition)
  • ADA
  • FMLA
  • FLSA (flsa? sounds like some type of salsa)
  • Workers Compensation (a personal injury lawyers dream!)
  • COBRA

These are but a few of the areas that are of paramount importance to anyone who for a paycheck runs the eight-hour race to someone else's pace. In the how to of learning my employment rights, I have amassed a wealth of on the job documentation and experience gained through trail, tribulation and application in learning to...


  • understand job descriptions
  • navigate the interviews (blues)
  • gracefully get through the first day (dismay on display)
  • handle the cost of dealing with the boss
  • deal with problem co-workers (the lurkers!)
  • recognize the dark side of human resource (the force!)

A lot of the information concerning employment rights whether on or off line is stacked in favor of protecting management or the companies interests. Are the employees even aware they need to be aware of their employees rights?


Well I learned and so can you. It's not rocket science so please don't consider this site as legal advice. This site is for educational purposes only.


Please review my specific disclaimer.
I hope you may find info on this site helpful if or when you need to consult a legal expert.


I have done my best to put my years of work experience and learning to apply my rights as an employee into these pages.
I love sharing my passion for our basic employee rights. Remember properly applied knowledge brings wisdom. If you are ready join me on this fascinating journey. Our jobs may depend on it.



What matters to me...is to help my fellow employee!
