Question

Matt is employed as a supervisor at Total Charge Industries. However, he gets fired from his job when he refuses to break local laws and discharge harmful chemicals from the company's production facility into a nearby river. Matt files a wrongful discharge suit Total Charge Industries. Which exception to the employment-at-will doctrine is Matt likely to choose when filing his suit?A) affirmative actionB) reverse discriminationC) implied contractD) information seizureE) public policy

Answer 1

Answer:

The correct option is E

Explanation:

Employment at will states that an employee would like to leave a job whenever the employe want for any reason, and employers also can terminate or fire an employee for any reason without notice.

So, in this situation, Matt denied to break the local laws and because of that the industry fired him from the job. Therefore, the exception which Matt will choose when filing the suit is the public policy, which is defined as the rules, laws and the government action which shows the rules that are selected for the public.
