If her employment is terminated due to layoff, she will be entitled to unemployment benefits.  If she quits, she may not be entitled to those benefits.  She should stay and record the comments, get the names of witnesses, etc.  There may be tort claims depending on the details of the situation.  The are exceptions, to discuss in more detail, please contact me, John Tatone at 586-868-5100.
