Yes....as a manager for years with the government many times it becomes common knowledge why someone is dismissed i.e. constantly being late or unexcused absences....drunkenness etc...I guess there are some instances where you may be violating some ones civil rights or some moral issue, then you may not be able to tell other employees the reason for a person's dismissal. Today if you call a former employer about a person, all they will tell you is the dates of employment and nothing else, not if they were fired or resigned or if they had drug problems...only the dates of employment...this is creating allot of problems in hiring good people...Jim Brown, Narberth Pa

No-not if that is the reason you were fired.

Can a employer force an employee to take drug test after he is fired?
AFTER he's fired? No... what's the employer going to do, fire you again if you fail?Another View: CONSIDER - - What is the reason the ex-employer is giving you?If the employer believes they may have committed an error and discharged you wrongfully, and is POSSIBLY offering to reinstate you if you test clean, you MAY want to think about it.If there is any reason other than that, you definitely do NOT have to take the test.

It depends on the state. Some states are "at will" work states, which means the employee can quit at any time for any reason, and an employer can let an employee go for any reason at any time. If you're serious about the question, it's unlikely you would get fired for that, but if you were, the employer would probably give some other more reasonable sounding reason.

Unless you have a contract that states otherwise (you probably do not - most employer/employee relationships are "at-will"), or unless local law states otherwise (it probably does not), you can be fired for any reason or no reason with or without notice as long as the reason is not discriminatory or illegal. Firing you for wearing jeans is perfectly legal.
Can you get fired for getting pay-cut and looking for a new job with same pay?
An employer can fire you for good reason, bad reason, or no reason unless firing violates a statute. No known statute prohibits firing an employee for job hunting.
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.
