Obie has worked for Force Security Systems for ten years. Although the relationship was happy and mutually- advantageous for the first eight years, the situation has been terrible for the past two years. Obie feels neglected and unappreciated, and the company questions his loyalty. As a result, each party is secretly looking for a way to end the relationship in the best way possible. Which of the following statements is TRUE?
A) If Force Security terminates Obie's employment, the duty to mitigate will require the company to ease Obie's return to the work force by doing things like writing reference letters.
B) Depending upon the circumstances, if Obie is summarily dismissed from his position as a senior executive with Force Security, he can expect to receive between 24 and 36 months worth of payment in lieu of notice.
C) While Force Security is required to provide Obie with either notice of termination or payment in lieu of notice, Obie is entitled to leave the company at any time without incurring any obligations or liabilities.
D) If Force Security acts in bad faith when it fires Obie, a court may award damages for bad faith dismissal, in addition to any other remedies Obie might have.
E) Each party must provide notice (or payment in lieu of notice) if it intends to terminate the employment relationship, and that notice period will be the same whether it applies to Obie or to Force Security.
