Wrongful Termination?: We live in florida my husband was terminated for not making his numbers he was branch manager shortly after numbers across the board were lowered. Also about 7 months before he had been diagnosed with a heart condition and has had several times where it was commented on (even dare I say made fun of)during board meetings. One of the owners of the company had just switched them to a health insurance company he has a connection with, and immediatly actually even before his termination was finalized his insuance was cancelled we would like to know if any of these issues could be cause for wrongful termination? - Is this your question?

In general, in right to work states, employers can fire employees for any reason, no matter how unfair or irrational. One exception is if there is discrimination based on race, religion, sex, etc. You'll have to speak with a local attorney to understand how exactly the laws work in your state.

Best of luck.
