Re: Should employers have the freedom to hire/fire for any reason they wish
If one is fired for cause in an at-will state, one is not eligible for UI benefits.
But someone fired without cause is eligible for benefits. They're not eligible for severance pay, but as far as UI benefits go, I'm not aware of any difference between at-will and other states.
A requirement to show cause is not at will employment. But one can still be fired tor cause in a state with at will employment.For cause criteria is not at-will employment.
