Best Answer

No law requires employers to offer fired employees a reason or advance notice. That is called the principle of employment at will.

Employers must clearly state the effective date of the discharge, and must pay the former employee for all wages earned up to dismissal. Most states require payment on the next regular payday after dismissal.

AFTER firing and employee, the employer may have to offer an explanation to state agencies to defeat a claim for unemployment benefits, or a charge of illegal discrimination.

That's about all.
