Can I be terminated for what my district manager likes to call "creating drama", but is really acting on what my responsibilities are supposed to be and acting on things that he does not communicate with me are otherwise "special privileges" for certain people.

Hi Alana,

Thank you for your question.

So long as an employer is terminating your employment "without cause" (examples of "cause" would include theft, insubordination, and breach of company policy), they can terminate your employment provided they give you reasonable notice and/or pay in lieu of notice.

For "without cause" terminations, the specific reason is not especially important, unless you can establish, for example, that the employer terminated your employment in a discriminatory fashion or in bad faith.

In any event, if your employment has been terminated, I strongly suggest you contact our firm to schedule a free consultation, as you may be entitled to significant compensation!
