It depends on the state law or statute where the employment occurs. For example, in Texas, the law is wide open for employers, in that an employer needs no more reason to terminate an employee than that they want to. In other words, in Texas, an employer does not need any reason to terminate you. Of course it is a two-way street, in that an employee is free to leave at any time, for cause, or just because he wants to. This may not be true in the state where you are employed.

Can you fire someone on the spot for not signing a noncompete?
If an employer utilizes a non-compete clause, most employers will not even offer employment if a non-compete clause is not signed beforehand. However, if the employer wants to establish a non-compete clause with current employees after the fact, then it depends on what state you live in and what your employment contract contains. For instance, in an employment-at-will state, an employer can terminate your employment for no reason at all (except if protected under Federal laws such as discriminatory practices or retaliation to whistleblowing); in this case, yes, your employment could be terminated if you don't sign. If you are in a right-to-employment state or operate under an employment contract, then review your contract to determine if your employer can terminate employment if you do not sign.
