At
Will Employment
Most workers are
employed "at will." Simply put, an employer may fire its
employees for any any reason (or for no reason) at any time.
However, there are several exceptions to the doctrine of "at
will" employment that exists in California. The most common
exceptions are as follows:
-
Discrimination
-
Whistleblowing
-
Employment
Contracts
-
Retaliation
for complaints about an unsafe work environment, harassment,
or discrimination
-
Public
Policy Violations (employer condones illegal activity)
-
Privacy
Invasions
-
Military
service
-
Family and
medical leave
