For the Past Seven Years, Hudson Has Worked as Vice-President

For the past seven years, Hudson has worked as vice-president in charge of personnel (a non-union position) for Mountain Enterprises Ltd. As part of a corporate reorganization, the directors of the company decided to downgrade Hudson's position to manager of personnel. Hudson is very upset at this change and consequently refuses to go along with it. Because of his refusal, the company dismisses him immediately without any notice or pay in lieu thereof. If Hudson sues for wrongful dismissal, which one of the following statements indicates the most likely outcome of the case?

A) The company will win because non-union employees are always subject to dismissal without notice, because there is no collective agreement.
B) The company will win because Hudson's refusal constituted cause.
C) The company will win because they dismissed him, rather than saying he was "fired."
D) Hudson will win because the company breached the employment contract and he does not have to accept that breach.
E) Hudson will win because an employer owes its employees a job, unless the employee is convicted of a theft.
