My husband was recently recruited by a large company. He had multiple interviews with the said company and was offered the position. He left a secure job to pursue this opportunity. He was "let go" this morning with them stating he was not a good fit...is there any recourse as they actively recruited him and during his almost 3 months employed he was working very hard, thought was going well and was not given feedback to state otherwise. He did comment to me that over the last couple weeks he noticed a change in his boss, felt she didn't like him...

We have an employee who we are looking to Terminate and want to give him the correct Severance Pay - He was first hired in 2003 - left June 2012 for personal Medical no-work related Medical Leave with an unknown if any return date.

I was dismissed with cause for a procedural error that was made. I have worked for this company for 4 1/2 years and had developed a very good reputation with management. this error was not made on purpose and I approached my immediate supervisor at least twice to try to rectify the situation, but nothing was done over the course of 7 months. All this time later an investigation was launched and I was fired.

Is a part time employee, working 20hrs/wk for 7+ yrs, entitled to termination notice and severance pay? I was given 2 days notice and no mention of any termination notice or severance pay.

My boss abused me and fired me
