“I am deeply disappointed of my employer. He terminated me from my job recently. I have done nothing wrong. Is it a great deal for him if I belong to a different race? What should I do now? How can I support my family’s needs? Who would dare to rescue me from this terrible situation?” These were some of the questions I heard my friend ask who believed that he has been wrongfully terminated from work. Our conversation prompted me to conduct a study about the law which prohibits employers from firing their employees on the sole basis of their race or color – the Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964.

There is a large number of people who are employed in a company in a so-called at will scheme. It means that they have not signed any formal or binding employment contract or have not signed any kind of agreement in terms of his or her employment with their employers.

This being the case, the law of the state has implicit permission that their employment can be ended at any given time, whatever occurs to their employers.

Meanwhile other employees have an employment contract signed with their employers, with a clause of “at will” to the condition that their employment may end depending on the employers’ option.
