Can you legally form an employment contract preventing termination?

Wednesday, April 18th, 2012

Can you legally form an employment contract preventing termination? For example, if I find a new position, but really would like to stay at my current one. I only looked because of mass layoffs hitting the company recently. My boss likes me and would surely make a counter-offer for me to stay.

Would it be possible to legally get them to sign a contract preventing them from "laying me off" for at least 2 years? Is there such a thing?

I would like to stay, but am fearful of current circumstances with the company.

What can potential employers find out on employment history and credit report?

Saturday, September 4th, 2010

I just got offered a position but it is contingent upon employment history check and a credit report. I quit the last job I had without much of a notice because of personal family issues and I was no longer able to work and I told my boss that. Will this hurt my chances of officially getting this new job? What all do they need ask on employment history and credit reports?? I’m a little nervous I might not get this job…

Thanks!

What are the employment protection agencies are there in the Washington state?

Wednesday, August 25th, 2010

What are the employment protection agencies are there in the Washington state? I have a family member who gets abused by her boss, who fabricates false information to her boss in order to fire her. I know that there are government agencies that protect employees from this kind of abuse by meeting and talking with them and consult on how to deal with these kind of issues. I cannot find them anywhere though. Can you help me, please? Thank you in advance.
