My boss wants my office for a new worker. She said that if I don't comply she will hire someone else for my position. I am the school administrator and as such I have a fairly nice but small office. The school is downstairs and she wants me to be down there more often but there isn't office space down there. She said she would give me a table in the hallway. I need quiet office space for student privacy and for administrative purposes. Can she threaten me with job dismissal if I don't give up my office?
While the employer is able to change your work space, it is unreasonable of them to ask you to work in the hallway and they should either allow you to keep your office or find you a proper space in the building.
