How To Tell If You Are The Victim Of Wrongful Termination
Like most states, Nevada follows “at-will” employment laws. Employer and employee have the right to terminate employment at any moment without notice or reason. Employers can fire employees for any reason, or none at all, under at-will laws. This can make it harder to prove a wrongful termination case. Nevertheless, the at-will doctrine is not without limitations. Employers cannot terminate an employment relationship in the ways below.
- Breach of federal or state laws,
- Violation of an employment contract,
- Discrimination against an employee based on his/her race, religion, gender, or disability,
- Harassment based on protected classes,
- As retaliation against protected practices such as whistleblowing.
An employer could legally be bound by an employee handbook if it has one that may affect the at-will rule. If an employee handbook outlines job security and termination procedures, and the employer fails to follow these guidelines, it could be considered wrongful termination. Unfair termination of employment could also be proven by an oral agreement securing job security.
