FAQ
Georgia requires employers to send a Separation Notice to EVERY exiting employee, regardless of whether the separation was voluntary or involuntary. The Separation Notice informs the Department of Labor whether the employee qualifies for unemployment benefits.
Unless you have a contract with your employer for a specified length of service, either you or your employer may terminate the employment relationship at any time, with or without cause, for any reason or no reason at all, with the exception of illegal discrimination.
Georgia also does not recognize a claim for “wrongful termination,” as Georgia is an “employment-at-will” state. This means that, in the absence of an enforceable employment contract or a violation of any anti-discrimination laws or federal statutes, employees in Georgia can be terminated at will.
In ance with the Employment Security Law, OCGA Section 34-8-190(c) and Rules pursuant thereto, a Separation Notice must be completed for each worker who leaves your employment, regardless of the reason for the separation.
In Georgia, most workers are usually regarded as employees "at will." This means that the employee works at the will of the employer and the employer can fire the worker at any time, for any reason (just about), and without any notice.
Is a Letter of Termination Required? For the most part, the Federal Labor Standards Act (FLSA) doesn't require organizations to provide letters of termination. The exceptions are when employees are part of a union, a collective bargaining agreement, or certain mass layoffs or corporate closures.
