FAQ
Yes! Although most civil claims do not escalate to the courtroom, some do.
Likewise, another exception to at will employment is terminations based on retaliation. Employers may try to fire or harass a worker in retaliation for filing workers' compensation, for taking either family or maternity leave or for reporting illegal activities (discrimination, harassment, wage or hour violations).
Firing a worker due to his or her age, race, sexual orientation or religious beliefs are at will employment exceptions in Florida because they break federal and state law on discriminatory employment practices.
If you lived in New Jersey, California, or some other states, your employer would need to have cause to fire you. Not so in Florida. Florida is an at-will state, which means an employer may fire, demote, hire, promote and discipline employees for pretty much any reason, or no reason at all.
Key Exceptions to At-Will Employment Implied Contracts. An implied contract exists when an employer's words, actions, or policies create a reasonable expectation of continued employment. Public Policy Violations. Discrimination and Harassment. Retaliation. Fraud or Misrepresentation.
These occur when an employee is fired in violation of contractual terms, public policy, or anti-discrimination laws. The average settlement for a wrongful termination employment lawsuit often ranges from $5,000 to over $100,000.
