Many employers engage in conduct that violates the rights of employees under the law. If this happens to you, always seek assistance from a trusted employment law attorney in the Bay Area. Employers can let employees go at will, which means they don’t need a specific reason, and employees also work at will. This said, however, there are important laws in place that prevent employers from firing employees illegally, discriminating against employees based on inclusion in a specific class, engaging in wage and hour violations, and more.
