In New Jersey, employees work on a basis called “at will”, which means at any given time, the employee or the employer can terminate the employment without reason or cause. However, exceptions to this status are that state laws and federal laws make it against the law to discriminate or retaliate against employees for any reason. In fact, the New Jersey Law Against Discrimination bans employers from terminating an employee or placing said employee in a hostile or potentially hostile work environment. Another law in New Jersey called CEPA bans employers from retaliating against employees who believe or have reason to believe they would be engaging in illegal or fraudulent activities, or who object or refuse to participate in anything they deem harmful to them or the public.

If you believe you have been falsely terminated or are being singled out, contact a lawyer right away who is experienced in harassment law.
