Branch Operations Manager at Valley National Bank

Confused..

I worked for my previous employer for over 15 years. Never had any issues, my work was flawless, Audits, Attendance, Reviews,etc. I transferred to another branch and worked that office for over 7 years. Started noticing issues in our break room and began bringing up my issues to property management. Nothing was happening, over time; My staff started complaining as well, along with health issues from the mood growth. After a period of time, no one was addressing the problem, so I sent an email to OSHA, shortly after I was terminated from my job. I, as an operations manager did not want to see my staff and myself suffer from the toxic fumes that were lingering in our lunch room where we had to eat. Was what I did wrong, should I have stayed quiet, I would have had my job still.

You called osha they probably knew it and fired you it wrong for them to do but its not somone you call for things to get done .all companus dont like osha when they have to pay 1000 to 100000 of dollers to them and they dont do nothing but charge the company moneythey tend not to be nice if they find out it was you that did it
