About the Program

You employ people in an at-will state, but do you fully understand when and how an employee can be terminated? While at-will employment provides flexibility, employers must still navigate important legal and practical considerations to reduce risk and ensure fair, consistent decision-making.

Join Jackson Lewis P.C. attorneys for a discussion of common termination scenarios and key issues employers should consider, including:

• What at-will employment does, and does not, allow
• Protected classes and anti-discrimination laws
• Retaliation claims and whistleblower protections
• Documentation and performance management best practices
• Leave and accommodation considerations under federal and state laws
• Consistency in disciplinary actions and termination decisions
• Wrongful termination risks and common employer mistakes
