Probation Termination Rights California
Summary
Probationary employees in California, even within a union, can generally be terminated without cause. However, union contracts may offer additional protections. Review your union contract and contact your union representative if you believe your termination violated contract terms. If you suspect retaliation for EEOC complaints or a hostile work environment, document evidence and consider legal advice. Progressive discipline and adequate training should be addressed in your rebuttal letter.Full Conversation
