New developments concerning termination in violation of public policy

Abstract

Looks at various forms of employee termination and the differing interpretations involved in law. Gives the steps in wrongful discharge, legal developments and organizational developments, plus the possible impacts on small business. Concludes that when employees complain about a problem on reasonable grounds, management should always try to rectify the problem – and not the complainant!
