Orlando, Florida Workplace Polygraph Protection
Lawyer / Attorney
Has your employer suggested or demanded that you
take a lie detector test?
The Employee
Polygraph Protection Act of 1988 (EPPA)
generally prevents employers from using lie
detector tests, either for pre-employment
screening or during the course of employment,
with certain exemptions. Employers generally may
not require or request any employee or job
applicant to take a lie detector test, or
discharge, discipline, or discriminate against
an employee or job applicant for refusing to
take a test or for exercising other rights under
the Act. In addition, employers are required to
display the EPPA poster in the workplace for
their employees.
The Employment
Standards Administration's Wage and Hour
Division (WHD) within the U.S. Department of
Labor (DOL) enforces the EPPA.
For a confidential
consultation regarding potential employment
dispute cases, contact the Law Office of N. James
Turner, Esq., P.A. at

The
hiring of a lawyer is an important decision that should not
be based solely on advertisements. Before you decide on the
hiring of a lawyer, you should learn about the lawyer's qualifications
and experience.
