Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The at-will doctrine is the default employment relationship in the United States, meaning that most workers are covered by it. This means that either the employer or employee can terminate the employment relationship at any time, for any reason, as long as it is not discriminatory or in violation of a contract or law. There are some exceptions to at-will employment, such as for employees covered by a collective bargaining agreement or those with an employment contract specifying a certain duration or employment conditions.
