Fired for false accusation
So today I got fired for being accused of stealing. I worked for the DHL company and we did shipping and receiving for the 3M company. We would carry items in cases of paint, sponges, paper, basically anything 3M related. Well I got talked to last week about a couple people reporting me for stealing. So I was on unpaid suspension for 3 days. When they call me to come in which would be Monday June 19th, they had went over the report. Claiming that they didn't see me on cameras stealing anything, but since it was 2-3 words of mouth against my own, they fired me. Is there anything or anyone I can report the what I feel was unfair? The ones who reported me even had "quoted" me and once they told me what they had claimed I said, I knew it was complete BS. So I guess I just would like some advice and if they went about this the fair way? Like I said they wrote on the report and had verbally told me no cameras had showed me taking anything.
Did you ask for these individuals to be present to face you face to face during the meeting which determined whether you would be terminated or kept working. Look at all the options if you were terminated see what you can do to get a fair hearing on your behalf. Make sure you go see the Head of you Department. Compliance, Human resources, EEO....several options.
