Arizona is an
At-Will Employment State.

Employers have the "Right" to
terminate employees unless...

"both the employee and the employer have
signed a written contract to the contrary"
as long as race, color, religion, sex, national origin,
age, or handicap status., refusing to commit illegal acts,
taking family or medical leave, or retaliate for having
taken protected action is cause for termination.

Follow the employment contract
to the letter.
