What are Illegal Reasons for Firing an Employee

Under the California Fair Employment and Housing Act, it is illegal to fire an employee for the following reasons:

• Discrimination: Employers can’t fire an employee for reasons based on their age, race, sexual orientation, disability, national origin, sex, or gender identity.
• Implied Contract: If you have an implied contract with your employee that states you can’t be fired for a specified amount of time but your employer fires you sooner, then you can take legal action for wrongful termination.
• Violation of Public Policy: Employers can’t ask workers to perform illegal acts or scams and then fire them for refusing.
• Whistleblowers: California has laws that protect employees who report illegal activities and violations of safety regulations within a company. If your employer retaliates against you for filing a whistleblower claim, then you can pursue compensation for lost wages and request a reinstatement of your job and benefits.
