You can file a civil lawsuit against your employer if the employer keeps threatening to fire you for harassment, and the burden of proof will be upon him to prove otherwise.

Is it against the law in Arizona for management to lie to customers and co workers about why you were relieved of your job?

You may have a case for a lawsuit. Most states have laws against any employer who discusses the terms of your dismissal from a job, whether they are telling the truth or not, with anyone who should not be receiving that information. If an employer tells people who have no business knowing, that you were fired, or why you were fired, it's called slander. Slander does not have to be a false story to be considered slander. If you are harmed in any way, emotionally, financially, socially, or in any other way by the information that the former boss is giving out, then that can be considered slander, and can be punished by law. If you feel that you have been slandered by your former boss, you may want to contact a lawyer, or at least contact your local bureau of wage and hour.

Can your former employer say you were fired?

Legally no, the worse thing a previous employer can say is "I have no comment on that person"It is a common fallacy that a previous employer cannot divulge that the employee was fired. It is not illegal for the previous employer to state the employee was fired and in most cases the reason for the firing, as long as it is a true statement. What a previous employer cannot do is make such accusations as the employee was fired for theft or other criminal act unless that employee has been charged and found guilty of the offense.Addition:You will have to check the laws in your state, but in general there is no law against an employer giving information about you including that you were fired. In general this is a bad practice since it opens an employer up to a lawsuit for defamation if the employer gave out false information that damaged you, i.e. prevented you from getting a job. Also, some information is considered defamatory per se such as accusing you of a crime. But truth is also always a defense to any defamation lawsuit.Yes.Most employers will not do this to avoid defamation of character suits something that may be interpreted differently by another party or by stating something that may not be true.A vast majority of employers will give dates of employment and position held even with your signed release.
