Punished For Missing Work Due To Unsafe Driving Conditions During A State Emergency

Card image cap

All of my scheduled raises are being withheld and I was placed on my final because I called off of work during a state emergency (snow).

I am in the US.

Two of my coworkers were killed in accidents coming to work last year and another died in unsafe weather coming to work a while back, yet they do not provide a way off of work in bad weather unless the road to the plant has been closed off.

I will be on my final for the remainder of the year (it's only February), I will lose my job should I miss one more day, which is extremely likely for weather or medical reasons.

I will also be withheld a few thousand dollars worth of raises that I was scheduled to receive.

Is this legal?
