no
Absent a contract between you and your employer or local law/company policy stating otherwise, an employer may fire you for any or no reason with or without notice.
The employer can revise job duties at will - absent a union contract prohibiting that. But no employer can compel you to work. You are free to quit ans find a better deal. That is called employment at will - you are free to quit with no notice or explanation; the employer can fire you with no notice or explanation.
No, but you can be fired after putting in your two weeks notice.
you have been fired
I think you can. If you are suppose to be at work,and are not,then you are absent! The best thing is to have an understanding with your employer for this before you do anything.
No employer is under any obligation to pay an employee who gives a two-week notice the additional two weeks. An employer can accept your notice but not accept the date of your notice. The notice is supposed to be the employee's attempt to eliminate or minimize the employer's trouble for the employee having left the position, by giving his/her employer time to find and train a replacement. But whether or not your employer decides to keep you on for additional time after you've submitted your notice is between you and the employer. Your employer is under no more obligation to keep you there than you are to stay there an additional two weeks. It's important additionally to see if the state in which you live is an "at will" state. In many states, an employer can essentially hire or fire for any or no cause.
Short answer: Yes, your employer can fire you at any time without reason at all. BUT depending on your employment agreement it may not be a valid reason and depending on your location the employer may be responsible for paying in lieu of notice. To know for sure you need to call the government agency in your area and ask.
they always check your background first and if they didnt they couldn't fire you
If you were doing your job there would be no reason for your employer to threaten to fire you.
I know in the state of Kentucky you can fire an employee for no reason at all within the first 30 days. After the 30 the employer needs a reason for the termination.
Unless a specific statute prohibits discrimination for reporting that particular crime, then yes. An employer can fire you for any reason or no reason, and needs to explain to no one.
At the moment you notice fire you have to activate fire alarm and get away from the place. Otherwise you will not get help in time.
