Arizona is a
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
setting forth that the employment
relationship shall remain in effect for a
specified
duration of time or otherwise expressly
restricting the right of either party to
terminate
the employment relationship." (ARS
23-1501)
|
Wrongful
termination lawsuits are possible in an "at-will"
employment state.
If Termination has
to happen...
- Termination is
always traumatic -- it should never be a
surprise.
- Restate the
problem and consequences.
- Document
incidents and training
provided.
- Have the
employee restate the above.
- Tell the
employee they are
terminated.
Escort
the employee from the premises.
Approximately 25 managers are murdered
each year by people they
fired.
