Florida is an at-will state. Absent a contract or collective bargaining agreement, the employer or the employee can terminate the employment relationship at any time, with or without cause, with or without notice.
If a contract provides a right of rescission, then in order to cancel such a contract, you must give written notice of cancellation within the time provided by the contract or by law, and it must be in the form required.
Notice of termination of employment No agreement may require or permit an employee to give a period of notice longer than that required of the employer. Notice of termination of a contract of employment must be given in writing, except when it is given by an illiterate employee.
(3) “Termination” occurs when either party pursuant to a power created by agreement or law puts an end to the contract otherwise than for its breach. On termination, all obligations which are still executory on both sides are discharged but any right based on prior breach or performance survives.
In Florida, employment is “at will”, meaning that either the employer or the employee can end the employment relationship at any time without reason unless you have an employment contract or union agreement governing the terms of your employment or work for a government employer.
You can legally be fired in Florida without a reason. But just because you have not been given a reason does not mean you should not try to determine the reason. Employers generally cannot discriminate against protected classes, break contracts, or retaliate.
Employment Termination Clause If you are working at will, you can terminate the contract at any time, but you have to give a two-week notice. If you are a contractor, the contract will probably have specific conditions for terminating the contract.
Under California law, employers must provide notice to employees before termination. For employees who have been employed for less than one year, the notice period is at least 90 days. For employees who have been employed for more than one year, the notice period is at least 60 days.
