Established protection is not an exception to the employment-at-will doctrine. The other options are exceptions: implied contract occurs when the employer’s actions or statements give the employee a reasonable belief that they will not be fired without cause, violation of public policy occurs when an employer fires an employee for reasons that violate important public policies, and implied covenant refers to the idea that there is an implied promise of fair dealing and good faith between employer and employee.
