Most California employees are employed ‘at will.’ This means that their employer may fire them for any reason at any time. Although California is an ‘at will’ state, there are two exceptions to the ‘at-will’ doctrine. A CA employee can sue for a breach of an employment contract or a termination of work based on discrimination.

Firing Based on Discrimination
Employers may not fire employees based on their race, gender, medical disability, religion, national origin, sexual orientation, etc. Bosses may not fire employees because they have reported an illegal behavior in their workplace. If your employer has fired you for one of the above reasons, you have been discriminated against. Your firing may be illegal.

Firing based on Contract
Your firing may have also been illegal if you had an employment contract with your employer. In this case, your employer likely cannot legally fire you without just cause. If you do not have a written contract you may also have an implied contract.

An implied employment contract cannot be breached by an employer. An implied contract may be created in several ways. The more of the following factors are present, the stronger you case is for an implied contract.

• Length of Service – The longer you have been working for an employer the more likely you are to have an implied contract. If you have just started a job, you most likely do not have an implied contract.
• Progressive Discipline Policy – these are policies that employers often have that set up a disciplinary structure for when employees make mistakes. Under these policies an employee will not be fired for a minor mistake; they will be given a series of warnings before they are fired.
• Employee Benefit Program – Programs such as 401K’s and retirement programs may create implied employment contracts. These programs imply that an employee will be around long enough to receive the benefits.
