My husband was recently relocated to the US from a caribbean island by the company he works for. He has a good position in this company, but has confronting some difficulties with his boss, who happens to be a female. He is being given tons of work by her and he has not been able to complete them all. She expects them all to be done in unreasonable time. She always has a sarcastic comment and makes him feel like he is not performing. My husband has been in this company for almost 20 yrs and has always performed. He feels very uncomfortable and his health is being affected. He is a smoker, but is actually smoking twice and maybe three times more than usual. The sad thing is that he is not the only one in the dept. being treated this way; it is practically the whole dept. with the exception of one person (male). I was an HR employee and tell him to report her, but he is afraid of losing his job, as well as the rest of the employees. WHAT CAN HE DO?

my husband is the the same position. He has been with his employer for ten years, and has always had passing evaluations and bonuses His new boss is unrelenting, makes inapropriate comments,and this has been going on for a couple of years. He was just infromed infront of an HR rep.that he has 45 days to turn everything around. This will be impossible. We are waiting for him to be fired, and then we will file a wongful termination suit. He was also told to look outside the company.
