My wife was asked to leave the job after I compainted

somesavings

To cut story in short, I was confused about what happened. I don't feel they treated my wife fairly at work, for example, she was asked to work overtime, afterwards, she was told no payment. To get things worse, she was send home straightaway after I went to complaint to her colleague at her office.

My question is if it's right for my wife to be sent home because of my complaint please?

Are you for real? You went to complain about your wife's treatment at her work?

What does it have to do with you anyway?

If your wife (not you; your wife) feels she has been treated unfairly at work then she should raise the issue herself, through the proper channels. YOU should not be going into HER office to complain.

As an aside are you using a spellchecker?

When did your wife start working for this employer? This may affect the advice given.

Having said that, I agree with Valli, when your wife is at work she is an employee of the company and SHE (not you) should take the matter up with her employer if she has concerns about the way she has been treated.

Yes, I did. She was in a short contract, the colleague made things difficult on her. ( I checked my spellings this post. )

So can we say that she hasn't worked there for longer than 2 years?

somesavings

It's about 1 year, made up by some short contracts. We felt shamed by the way treated.

But, again, what does it have to do with you? It's up to her top complain, not you.

Valli

Is she hourly paid or salaried? Some salaried positions carry with them an expectation of unpaid overtime; has she been given a contract which sets out her role and remuneration?

somesavings

Her job was paid by hour. Once, a manager didn't want her to go to a staff meeting, which made her sad. The colleague knew it but arranged overtimes for her to work back the time and didn't tell her it's unpaid. My wife was a low ranking staff and always did what the colleague asked. It was the reason I went to complain.

Valli

Well it's up to your wife to complain if she has an issue with a colleague.

Is your wife expected to go back to work?

somesavings

No, all the managers came out and showed her door immediately, never going back, because of me.
