If an employer doesn't want you around, then why would you want to stick around, or even bother screwing them for money? They've done you a favour by giving you a job, and if it doesn't work out then you're obviously bad at your work and shouldn't be working there anyway. Or, you've pissed off someone in power, even if you are good at your job. In either case, the best idea is just to move on. Why get the government involved with such a petty matter? If it was a case of unpaid wages or of an unsafe workplace then of course it would be worth reporting, but in this case it's just easier to go your separate ways.
To the original poster, I would suggest you ask for a reference and show yourself the door. If they refuse to give you a reference, in subsequent job interviews you at least have an explanation for why you left that job. How long had you worked there? If it was a minimum of a couple of years, most future employers would see that as a bonus and trust your version of events over your current employer's desire to fire you.

If you'd made a massive error without knowing, they'd bollock you for that. They wouldn't wait for an innocuous incident as an excuse to sack you. |
It might just be a general attitude, work ethic or incompetency issue that they have, rather than one isolated incident. Or, they may have their own agenda; hiring someone younger and who costs less for example.
