Public Policy Violations
Not all unfair or unjustified terminations or
suspensions are "wrongful terminations" that can be sued over. Only decisions
to fire an employee that violate "public policy" may be challenged in court.
The most common wrongful terminations that violate public policies are those
employment decisions that follow an employee's opposition to (or protest
against) unlawful activities of his employer or supervisor. Employees that are
fired for their whistleblowing may sue their employers for wrongful
terminations in violation of public policy. Examples of wrongful terminations
include employees fired for objecting to violence, sexual harassment or
discrimination, fraud, dangerous conditions and health and safety problems.
