Addis v. Dept. of Labor, No. 08-1009

Petition for review of the Department of Labor's dismissal of plaintiff's employment retaliation claim is denied where substantive evidence supported an ALJ's finding that plaintiff failed to sustain the burden of proving that her protected activity was a contributing factor in her termination, as her employer refused plaintiff's  attempt to rescind her resignation because the company was unhappy with her substandard performance and not in retaliation for filing a safety complaint.
