Legal Question in Employment Law in Florida

Slander in the workplace?
I am a cook for a local resaurant chain. (There are two of these restaurants in my city) For two years I worked for one of them and due to a difference in personality with one of the managers I asked to be transferred to the other store. The manager that I had a problem with didn't want to transfer me but the general manager overruled him. I have been working at the new store for about 4 months now; hoping to become a manager myself. Today I found out from my new manager that the manager at the previous store I worked at is accusing me of things I have never done. Of course this will ruin any chances of promotion I might have. What can I do? He has completely ruined my reputation. Is this slander?

Re: Slander in the workplace?

You need to provide more details. What exactly did the the other manager acuse you of? How do you know that he is the one that made the acusation?
