Unfair Termination Case Review

Summary

In Ohio, employment is generally at-will, allowing termination for any non-illegal reason. If you believe your suspension or potential termination for aggressive driving is unfair, especially compared to another employees treatment, you might have grounds to challenge it. Consider if discrimination or failure to follow disciplinary procedures is involved. Gathering evidence or witness statements can support your claim. Consulting with a local employment attorney could provide personalized advice.

The reason for the suspension was marked as “being aggressive and generally unsafe” because of the horn honking. There was a dashcam facing in and outside of the vehicle that saw them going slow and me honking my horn
Thanks for sharing the details. In Ohio, employers can terminate employees for almost any reason, as it is an "at-will" employment state. However, you may have some recourse if:
- The suspension or potential termination is based on discrimination (race, gender, age, etc.).
- Your employer is not following their own disciplinary procedures.
Do you believe your employer is treating you unfairly compared to other employees?
Yes, there was another driver that drove a car off the road in this same accident but came back to work the next day
Thanks for the information. Since you believe there is unfair treatment compared to another driver, you might have grounds to challenge the suspension or termination. It could be helpful to gather any evidence or witness statements supporting your claim.
