Wrongfully accused of stealing money from a company which i was employed with need help on how to purse this.?

Question

I was currently working for a well-known company as a cashier.Before I start off by telling what happen I wanted to let people know that this was my first time ever handling money for any types of businesses. so i had to have addition help with everything it wasnt that i didnt know how to count money i was just having some trouble. but anyway, once i first started my draw came up short because i mistakely gave away the wrong change. the cash register was different to me but when you needed change you were supposed to put in a certain code to get the change, then you were supposed to put the money in your register bag. Well i had been working there for just a little bit over a month and I just found out the correct producere for getting change. so before then I would just get the money out of the register put it under the machine so as the customer were walking past the couldnt see the money and it wont get stoled. But the other day they called me in the office and told me they have me on camera stealing the money, which is not true. I asked if i could view the tapes they refused me. I got up in walked out because I couldnt handle them labeling me as a thief. I just dont know what to do because I dont want to just leave this alone in they believe that i really stole the money. i want to get a chance to prove to them that i was wrongfully accused of stealing the money. I really need help because I dont want something like this to be on my record then i want be able to get a good job. so if somebody out there that can help please do some. thank you

Answer 1

It shouldn't go on your record unless they take it to court.

If it goes to court, you need a lawyer. At the trial, the lawyer can argue that while the tapes may show you stashing money under the register, there is no proof on the tape or anywhere else that you TOOK that money.

I don't think they'll take it that far. In the future, do not use that company on your resume or as a reference, and no one will have to know about it.

Answer 2

You might be requested to wait a disciplinary committee at which you're going to have the risk to position your case to the committee. I could strongly endorse you get your buddy to write down or e mail whatever prematurely confirming that he purchased the object for you from the shop. If you can't turn out that you just bought the object or that it used to be bought for your behalf, then this can be a fair assumption to make that you just took it from the shop inventory. It is enormously not going they'll flip the problem over to the police, however it's enormously most probably that you are going to e disregarded from their employment.

Answer 3

Talk to the manager and tell them you will take them to court and file a wrongfull firing lawsuit. It should get their attention if you didn't steal anything. Tell them you want to see the footage as well as how much was missing exactly. The manager may be stealing and it's easier to label you the thief and get you fired. It makes him look good because he "caught you", but bad for him because he can't steal any more money.
