What can happen to Kaiser Permanente workers in California?
Kaiser Permanente has more than 200,000 employees. This is a massive employer, particularly here in Los Angeles and surrounding areas. Just because a company is large and established does not mean they are free from wrongdoing. In fact, it means that they are often better at covering it up.
The team at the Azadian Law Group, PC, has experience handling cases against Kaiser Permanente and their affiliates:
- Kaiser Foundation Health Plan
- Kaiser Foundation Hospitals
- Southern California Permanente Medical Group (SCPMG)
- The Permanente Medical Group (TPMG)
In many cases, Kaiser Permanente workers face discrimination, harassment, and wrongful termination. That is where our Los Angeles Kaiser Permanente attorneys come in. We have in-depth knowledge of the structure of their organization, their union issues, and arbitration clauses. We are well aware of the tactics this company uses against its employees, especially in wrongful termination cases. We have seen them make false claims against workers for charting issues, HIPAA violations, improvement plan failures, and disciplinary policy issues.
State and federal laws protect employees from discrimination and harassment in the workplace. Our team is ready to step in and help any employee of Kaiser Permanente, including doctors, surgeons, nurses, IT professionals, and more.
Retaliation against employees for reporting unsafe conditions
Workers in the healthcare industry must be able to raise concerns about patient safety and unsafe work environments. There are three areas of law that we will use to protect workers who raise concerns about their safety and the safety of patients:
- California Health & Safety Code Section 1278.5 – offers protections for healthcare workers retaliated against after complaining about suspected unsafepatient care.
- California Business & Professions Code Section 510– offers protection for licensed healthcare workers (including nurses) retaliated against for complaining about inadequate patient care.
- California Business & Professions Code Section 2056– provides these same protections to doctors and surgeons.
Los Angeles Kaiser Permanente Retaliation Cases: Common Forms Of Retaliation
When an employee of Kaiser Permanente draws attention to unsafe conditions or unethical practices, there are various ways in which the company might retaliate against them. The following are just a few common examples:
- Terminating their employment
- Denying the employee raises or promotions they have earned
- Assigning an employee to undesirable shifts
- Requiring an employee to perform unpleasant duties
- Unfairly disciplining an employee
- Subjecting an employee to harassment
- Not allowing an employee to take advantage of professional development opportunities
Those are just a few examples. Sometimes, it’s not entirely clear whether the manner in which an employer is treating you qualifies as illegal retaliation.
If you’re a current or former Kaiser Permanente employee who has any reason to suspect that you’ve been the victim of retaliation, meet with a Los Angeles Kaiser Permanente attorney to learn more about your case. We can help you better understand if you have grounds to take legal action. In the meantime, steps you can take to document the retaliation you’re facing include:
- Make a note of any instances of retaliation you’ve experienced
- Contacting witnesses who may be able to corroborate your story
- Filing a complaint with HR to ensure there is proper documentation of your concerns
The Role Of A Los Angeles Kaiser Permanente Attorney
Kaiser Permanente is a large company. As such, they’re prepared to defend themselves when current and former employees file claims and lawsuits.
You don’t need to pursue justice alone in these circumstances. In fact, you may have a better chance of winning your case if you seek proper legal representation. A Kaiser Permanente lawyer can assist you in the following critical ways:
- Reviewing your case to confirm whether it’s valid
- Determining what type of compensation may be available to you based on the nature of your losses/damages
- Conducting an investigation to gather evidence of wrongdoing
- Filing a claim or lawsuit on your behalf
- Leveraging our understanding of Kaiser Permanente’s unique arbitration process to ensure your case is handled properly
- Entering into negotiations when the compensation or settlement that’s offered to you isn’t sufficient
- Answering any questions you may have about the progress of your case
Keep in mind that pursuing justice when you’ve been mistreated as an employee of Kaiser Permanente isn’t merely for your own benefit. It could also benefit both your coworkers and any future employees of the company. If Kaiser Permanente is held accountable for wrongdoing, the company may be less inclined to engage in similar forms of misbehavior going forward.
