Legal Question in Employment Law in Georgia

corective action and possible termination

I work in the state of GA in a remote environment in a management position. I was recently placed on corrective action due to an employee complaint that escalated to our HR Dept. This issue was not discussed with me prior to the corrective action for my side of the events and afterwards, I notified my supervisor that the info provided them by the employee was erroneous and provided documentation. Attempts for a followup discussion were refused and I went to our Regional Manager to discuss. Nothing was ever done with that and no further communication regarding the matter ensued. I have just been notified that a client has stated I was not replying in a timely manner to her emails and am at risk of losing my job. Do I have any legal recourse in the event I am terminated?

Re: corective action and possible termination

What does your contract say? If you do not have one, your employment is likely "at will." "Legal recourse" is generally not available because you disagree with your boss, or how a situation was handled. Employers generally can't be sued into taking an employee's side.
