I am an massage therapist at this clinic who was scheduled the same day of the week, every week for six weeks. My last week scheduled, said employer came to me with a wage garnishment for child support, and hour later I was sent home and told I was now "on call" because the business was slow. The following week, Cinnabar said they will still slow and had no massages for me. Since then a few prospective clients I know have a called the clinic to request me personally for a massage. They have all been told that I am not on the schedule and to see another massage therapist. No one at Cinnabar has contacted me regarding these massage requests. It is obvious that I was put "on call" because of the wage garnishment for child support I owe.
During my interview I was promised training during "down time". No training as been offered to me as of the date of this report: 8/9
This is discrimination and according to Labor Code Section 2929 (b) provides, No employer may discharge any employee by reason of the fact that the garnishment of his wages has been threatened.
