Employment Law
What Employers and Employees Need to Know Regarding the Termination of an Employment Relationship
Our modern legal system allows for challenges to employer discretion in the termination process and views employers as de facto fiduciaries of employee rights.
Now, termination must be based on an “honest belief” of the employee’s performance shortfalls or misconduct. See, e.g., Blizzard v Marion Tech Coll, 698 F3d 275 (6th Cir 2012); Tingle v Arbors at Hilliard, 692 F3d 523 (6th Cir 2012).
