Review the three employee firing situations in the chapter opener. Individually or in teams, develop arguments for and against firing the employees in the situations. Present your arguments to your class, The actual court decisions? The dental assistant’s firing was upheld because the firing was based on emotion and not sexual harassment. The firing of the automotive parts store employee was upheld. He had no expectation of privacy because he initiated the voice mail. The professor was reinstated after a 1-month suspension and psychological evaluation.
