I work with 5 other colleagues in the same job, we all work alone but doing the same job at different times. We work in shifts everyone for 28 hours. Now is my boss calling my colleagues and asking questions about me, how they think I am doing my work. Probably some of them have giving him negative things about me because i need to come and see him about some issues. I dont know about what. But I never work with my colleages we just meet eachother when we change shifts so only our client could make complaints about my work if there are any. Complaints from my colleagues couldnt be about work it only can be their opinion about the 5 minutes they see me. So it would be hear say. Isnt it? I am sure that there are no complaints from clients so do I have to be afraid of my job? Just because some colleagues doesnt like me, he cant judge me for that? Can he?

Yes your employer can ask your colleagues questions. Your boss doesn't need your permission. You say you don't work with them,
I don't have to work on the same shift as my other colleagues to know if they are good or not. I can tell by the way the job is done when I start my shift. Do I have to do their job that they left behind? Clean before I can start, left the place a mess everyday.
Besides maybe your gettin a raise for a job well done.

Bosses cannot do what ever they want, when ever they want.. but in this case yes they can ask your colleagues about your work performance, how you relate with others, or to perform an inhouse investigation without your permission, as long as the questions are consistent, work related, and do not get into your personal life or are dealing with areas/issues outside of the professional work place.

tell your corporation, yet comprehend that with the aid of fact it replaced into off accountability and after paintings hours there is not plenty which would be finished. The corporation's duty ends once you're actually not at paintings. with the aid of fact it replaced into stated once you have been "putting out" at night, the guy will get away with it. although notifying your corporation will help if something is asserted at paintings.

Unfortunately your boss can do that especially if he/she has reason to believe you are not performing up to company standards. There is no hearsay here. That is something completely different. It is out of your hands until he calls you into his/her office (If they decide to so.)

your boss can do just about whatever he likes. are you sure he's asking people about you? do you know what they are saying?

If you have no union, you are not protected against this.
