Employer discussions of employee actions
I serve as a member of a board of directors for a non profit corp. We discussed the actions of our only employee and when he found out about it he resigned and is threating to sue us for slander. The actions were witnessed and the discussions were totally between the board members only. Can't employers discuss actions of employees without the treat of this happening? I have always heard that Truth is the defense for Slander, but the money it is going to cost in legal fees is horrible.
