My boss has been extremely difficult. She is on a mission to have me fired and proved it w/an annual review that reflects i am incapable of any of the job functions and that my performance is below company standards. I put in writing an Appeal in a professional manner and requested that she review the true facts of what I have accomplished, my strengths and abilities. My request to Appeal was submitted & w/a request for us to work out our differences because I did not want such a review in my HR file. She did not respond to the first request. Then I sent her a second request asking if she had opportunity to review and when could we get together to discuss.She responded then with: Your notes and comments have been attached to your review and submitted to HR. WHAT!? I emailed her back and asked does this mean that I do not have a right to appeal and to clear my name and have the right to fair trail? She will not respond to this at all. Tell me someone please, can she get away with this? Can she really ignore my request to Appeal.Anyone know my legal rights on this?

There's really not a lot you can do. Chances are HR will side with the supervisor. And you say "fair trial"? This isn't a matter of the justice system, it's an internal issue with your employer unless your boss showed some kind of prejudice towards you like race, religion. gender. Your best bet if you think your boss is out to get you is to go to HR and explain your concerns and request to be transferred away from your current boss. If that doesn't work I would either start looking for a new job or continue working there and hope that your witch boss gets fired before anything happens to your job.Good luck

i am so sorry to hear you this. i think i am in a similar situation but my review was not officially done yet. i do not know your job profile, type of industry etc., but i would be worried and searching for a job right now.. in a scale of 1 to 5,

4 - great

3.5 - okay

3 - prepare to get a job in next 12 months

less than 2 - prepare to get a job in next 3 months.

as long as they have a record on your HR record would be sufficient. verify you save a duplicate of what she wrote and your rebuttal and save on your documents. If she is unquestionably on a venture to get you fired, then you certainly will a minimum of have a record you disputed this once you record for unemployment in the event that they allow you to flow. And if certainly she is on a venture, it truly is going to ensue, so be arranged and replace your resume and start up up looking and need you detect something till now it happens. Your rebuttal has now set the "wheel in action" which includes your boss, and now they're going to rfile each little thing you do from this element on, so I propose you start up up holding a on a regular basis diary of the activities on your job. stable luck
