FLORHAM PARK — Joseph Maddaloni, Jr., Partner at Schenck, Price, Smith & King was featured in P&C Specialist publication. The article, “Auto-Owners Firing of RTO Critics Raises Questions About How Execs Handle Dissent” discussed how stricter return-to-office policies can lead to greater employee dissent and employer backlash against outspoken employees.
In the article, Maddaloni analyzed the company’s position in the case and discussed how theft and misuse of company property could be grounds for disciplinary action and/or termination for employees, but the circumstances raised the suspicion that this computer issue was a pretext” for retaliation for the RTO criticism.
