Last december I was fired from my job, economic cutbacks. When I asked them specificly why they chose me, all they would say is they are not at liberty to discuss that, they were more concerned with pushing me out the door than giving me a direct answer. Dont they have to give me a specific explanation if I ask for it? I should file a wrongful termination lawsuit against them. Since they are toying with the way I make a living, they could at least tell me why they chose me, its 10 months later and I am still looking for work.

If you were an at-will employee, they could fire you for any reason or no reason at all, so long as it wasn't one of the reasons the law says are impermissible (race, gender, national origin, skin color, religion, etc.). They don't have to give a reason.
In this case, employer was cutting back. They can cut any at-will employee they want to cut and that's just a business judgment. Not legal advice as I'm not licensed in Wisconsin. If you need legal advice, please consult a lawyer who holds Wisconsin licensure. Good luck with your job search. |
