I have a friend who was suspended because of Loss Prevention practices. First she was not made aware of these practices and the items that were missing may have gone missing on a prior shift when the store Manager was working. I have worked for this company as a Store Manager and 99% of the time when you are suspended, they are ordering your last check. She has had no prior disciplinary actions against her. Also, there are co-workers that are there that know these Loss Prevention measures have never been followed by the store manager. My friend is located in California. I know about At Will Employment but does she have a case.

There are no laws against 'unfair treatment' or poor management. In general, unless an employee is civil service, in a union, or has a written employment contract, they are an 'at will' employee that can be disciplined or fired any time for any reason, with or without �cause�, explanation or notice. "At will" means exactly that, they need no cause. Suspicion provides 'cause' even beyond that. NO case.
