Ground Rules: Employment Law Over Your Coffee Break

L4L Book Club: What At-Will Really Means


Listen Later

In this episode of Ground Rules, we continue our Law for Leaders book club with Chapter Two: At-Will Employment.

What does “at-will” really mean—and what does it not mean? The team breaks down common misconceptions (including the difference between at-will and right-to-work), why documentation matters more than ever, and how failing to clearly communicate termination decisions can fuel discrimination claims.

We also discuss when employment agreements make sense, what can knock you out of at-will status, and why rising Human Rights Commission claims should have every employer paying attention.

If you supervise people, this is a foundational conversation you can’t afford to miss.
