• In 2 Lawsuits, U.S. Labor Department Obtains Back Wages and Corrective Action for Connecticut Workers Fired for Filing OSHA Complaints


” The U.S. Department of Labor has obtained consent judgments requiring two Connecticut employers to pay back wages and take corrective action on behalf of two workers who the department claims were fired in retaliation for filing complaints alleging unsafe or unhealthful conditions with the department's Occupational Safety and Health Administration.

”The department's regional Office of the Solicitor simultaneously filed complaints and consent judgments in the U.S. District Court for the District of Connecticut on behalf of a former employee of Parker Medical, an East Bridgewater manufacturer of X-ray devices, and an employee of Scott Bialik, a Brookfield dentist.”
