$14.$ Please answer the question: the individual needs to read the At$-$Will Employment and Wrongful Termination article summary.

$-$Article Summary: At$-$will employees can end their employment relationship without notice or for any reason, except in Montana. All U$.$S$.$ states are at$-$will, allowing employers to terminate employees without penalty unless a contract or collective bargaining agreement exists. The wrongful termination exception provides employees with some protection. Employee rights in an at$-$will employment relationship include exercising statuteary rights, supporting public interest, refusing illegal or unethical acts, and reporting violations of the law. Employers cannot penalize terminations for retaliation, but can terminate employees for supporting public interest, refusing wrongful acts, or reporting violations. Rights protected by federal law include protection from sexual harassment, discrimination, and class membership. If an employer violates these rights, employees should contact an employment lawyer. At$-$will employment exceptions include wrongful termination, implied contracts, and anti$-$discrimination laws. The public policy exception prohibits employers from firing someone in violation of state public policy, provided it is explicit and well$-$established. The implied contract exception can exist without an explicit contract, forming when the employer makes certain representations about job security or disciplinary procedures. Courts consider factors such as hire information, policies, assurances, and relationship representations. Only a few states recognize the covenant of good faith exception, which ensures fair dealing and good faith in employment relationships. Wrongful termination can be based on sexual harassment, discrimination, illegal activity, or retaliation. Workers' compensation benefits cannot be used as a reason for termination.
