- Staffing Firm Under Fire for Employee Retaliation
May 23, 2017
Staffing agency Hire Dynamics L.L.C. is being accused of retaliating against an employee by the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission. The worker had filed a discrimination charge against the company.
The EEOC described the situation Tuesday, saying that the staffing and professional recruiting firm, based in Duluth, GA, had assigned the position of quality auditor (for one of the firm’s clients) to an unidentified employee. The employee missed one day of work and was suspended for a week.
The unnamed employee filed a discrimination charge against the company, prompting the EEOC to file a lawsuit. In the suit, the agency claims that the employee was no longer given any new assignments or opportunities by Hire Dynamics, L.L.C.after filing the charge against the company.
According to the EEOC, these actions violate Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964.
EEOC District Director Bernice Williams Kimbrough said in a statement, “an employer has no right to punish him for exercising his rights… In today’s employment climate, the importance of protecting workers who utilize the charge filing process is greater than ever.”
Retaliation charges filed with the EEOC have been recently increasing. If something similar has happened to you, contact a Phoenix employment lawyer from Phillips Law Groupat 1-800-706-3000 .

I have been with Phillips Law Group for a little over a year and I have learned what teamwork and family in a workplace looks like. There is always someone around to lend a helping hand, which is something I appreciate and cherish. I feel a sense of joy coming to work every day because of my co-workers as well as being able to help people in what can be a scary and stressful situation. I currently work as a Litigation Legal Assistant with an amazing team. When I started here, I was not very knowledgeable in personal injury. I was lucky to have been placed with an amazing team who was willing to take time to teach and pass on some great skills that have been a huge aid in helping me be successful in my position. I would recommend working here at Phillips Law Group, because they care about their employees and there is so much room for growth.

Many companies talk about teamwork but few practice it. Many companies talk about an employee friendly environment but few actually provide it. At Phillips Law Group the foundation of our success is making sure we work as a team and that we work in an environment that allows everyone to thrive and be at their best every day. Our firm understands that in order for the client to have a great experience the people responsible for that client’s case must be given all the necessary tools and encouragement to make that happen. That’s the Phillips Way. As a manager of this firm in charge of several employees as well as directly affecting the client’s experience I take tremendous pride in saying we live by these premises and we work hard to build on them and make them better every day. This is an amazing place because it has amazing people working here!

Positive: Professionalism, Quality, Responsiveness, Value As someone who is familiar with the inner workings of the auto insurance industry I can whole heartedly endorse Steven J. Jones and Phillips law group as someone I would want on my side should litigation take place. They handled my case professionally, honestly, and with satisfactory results which I would not have expected without enlisting their help.

I would like to send special thanks to Phillips Law Group for giving me the opportunity to be a part of the Best Law Firm here in the Valley. During these troubling times with the epidemic, Phillips Law Group has masterfully created this family-like environment while still maintaining a professional and business-like approach for all their clients. Thru impeccable leadership that is unmatched by other law firms to the Multi-diverse employment opportunities that many employees advance within the firm; Phillips Law Group has not only distanced themselves from all other competition in the Personal Injury field but also has innovatively changed the narrative of being a great law institution. From providing Employee Appreciation Day to celebrating all major Holiday including great competitive contests; Phillips Law Group has the total participation of all employees to help contribute to the continued success of this firm. So in closing I would like to thank Senior Administration (Jeffery Phillips, Eva Chiaramonte, and Tim Tonkin) along with all of my colleagues and many friends for help making Phillips Law Group a unique and wonderful place to call my place of employment for 6+ years.
