- Restraining OrderWhen an employee needs to take time off from work to take legal action such as obtaining a temporary restraining order, restraining order, or other legal relief, to secure their own health and safety, or to protect their child. An employer must not disclose the reason an employee is taking time off, or make public any related documentation about the victim’s situation. Employers are legally required to keep all of this information confidential.Â
