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.
