Summary of differences between federal and state regulations
The general at-will employment doctrine is what employers generally refer to unless there are state laws that provide more detail. This is a situation in which there is a lack of laws or contracts that narrow the reasons for which employees may be terminated. Where such laws or contracts exist, they must be adhered to.
State courts have recognized the concept of public policy exception to the at will employment concept; that is, it is illegal for an employer to terminate an employee for refusing to break the law on behalf of the employer.
