(in India) Reasons are required:

Yes, the good administration and honest administration requires that the order of suspension be supported by reasons. The competent authority, while passing an order of suspension may not quote chapter and the verse, but he is obliged to cover the grounds or short reasons for suspending its employee.

Why reasons are required?

The reasons in support of order of suspension is necessary, because the "suspension" is subject to judicial review. Beside this, the order of suspension is also subject to appeal before the higher authority under the Disciplinary rules.

Find something more in this connection:

First of all, the meaning of suspension is an act to temporarily debar, and or prevent the employee from the discharge of his active duties. The employer has inherent right to suspend its employees, when the departmental inquiry is contemplated or pending, or when the criminal trial, inquiry, or investigation is going against him. Suspension is not a penalty, but an interim action that prevents an employee from performing his active duties in his office. The suspension is resorted to against the employee so that he may not temper with the evidence, or influence the witnesses.

For exhaustive details on the subject, please go through the Cases, materials and commentaries on Gujarat Civil Services (Discipline and Appeal) Rules by Hemang D. Rana, Advocate.

Another View: Actually, insufficient information is given in the question about the reason for the suspension action.

(in the US) Although it may seem to make no sense to suspend someone (presumably for disciplinary reasons) without telling them the reason why. . ., if you are working for an employer in a so-called 'at will' or 'right-to-wrork' state, you MAY be subject to such an action. You would have to contact the agency of state government which enforces state labor laws to determine if that procedure is lawful in your particular state or not.

Certainly, seems they were trying to find merit in having you continue being there or giving you the chance to make your case. Nothing wrong with that. Employment is not a democratic process, in most states the LAW is called "employment at will", which means you can quit if you want & they can fire you if they want.

They don't get to abuse you, that is covered under the law, but firing someone for "Cause" is perfectly legal and within the employers rights. To cover their butts there is usually an employee handbook or a set of rules posted somewhere. You MAY be eligible for unemployment unless you are fired for cause.

An employer can do anything not prohibited by law. It may be unethical for an employer to terminate or suspend an employee out of anger, but it's not illegal.
