Legal Advice for Truck Drivers

Questioner

Good morning, yesterday my friend came home from work in dismay, he had received a phone call from a higher colleague that his truck cabin was covered in lice, last Friday he got a new truck so the old one had to be cleaned. Strange because he didn't notice this himself, I would notice this too if he came home, I myself suspect that it was fruit flies, according to my friend it was claimed that the dog had been in the cabin, this also doesn't happen because he is afraid of trucks, how to solve this because they now want to charge the bill to my friend, they have previously spoken badly and suggested things that are not true, he himself thinks that it may be because he is of German descent. Is it wise to go against it and get the higher boss involved?

I advise your friend to talk to his manager. If the truck was indeed infested with lice, then that is the employer's responsibility, unless the employer can prove that it is your friend's fault.
