Do you think I was wrongfully fired?

Were they aware of your hearing problem? Did you request accommodations from them to make it easier for you?

Sadly, most jobs today are considered employment-at-will. This means the employer can fire you at any time, for any reason, or even no reason at all, with or without giving notice.

The only wrongful terminations I know of are due to (1) discrimination, or (2) sexual harassment. You will need some convincing proof that one of these two conditions apply for you to have a legal recourse to your firing.

The first thing I would do is request a copy of your employee file from your employer. Examine it and see if there are any problems or false information in there. Second, speak to a lawyer. The laws differ from state to state, so you might have a case that's valid. See what he/she advises for you.

Good luck.

You left I would imagine a an easier job with the pay of a more perhaps demanding job.Quite frankly,i think you had it made.It may also have been a temporary setback.Its not discrimination how you describe the incident.Are you telling the whole story? Maybe you just didn't cut it for the job.In any case,you left,which i see makes you a quitter unless you were smart enought to leave for a new job with a better pay.

It relies upon on the regulations of the state you stay in. in some states, you may hearth someone for a competent reason, no reason, a foul reason or a incorrect reason. It quite would not remember. although, if the fired you becuase of your age (and also you're over 40), your race, your gender, or the different federally secure classification, then you absolutely've felony recourse. you may't sit down round although. You ahve an felony responsibility to mitigate (decrease) your damages by ability of attempting to seem for yet another interest with some type of diligence. setting up diverse interest applications a week is often sufficient. You don;t could detect a job yet you may seem for one. you also do no longer could take a job it quite is way below your potential set, although money needs will require you to. bypass see an employment lawyer with reference to the regulations of your certain state. maximum will see you for loose a minimum of to ascertain once you've a competent case.

Sounds like they certainly expected active communications from the position they were promoting for. You left the company, weren't fired, so little chance to file a discrimination lawsuit, either.

Where are you from?

If you in the U.S., we do have ADA American Disability Act

Do you belong to a Union, if so contact your rep

If not you should

Or call a lawyer

Bottom line: since they kept your pay the same, then no I don't see it as wrongful, they were most likely ADA compliant

Duh...you weren't fired....you LEFT your job. Big difference. IMO, you were stupid to leave when you were getting the same pay even though it was a low profile job.

Absolutely

Sorry that your employer couldn't adapt to your hearing-impairment

Keep your chin up there are plenty of jobs for qualified people

Try finding something that you truly enjoy

Why didn't they learn sign language so that they could communicate with you? I thought all disabilities were protected, so I would see an attorney.

I think it is unfair

Good luck

No way. It's not your fault. That's discrmimination.
