In Ithaca, NY, a campaign has launched to end at-will employment, which keeps workers in a state of precarity, enabling abusive practices from employers.
"Simply put, Just Cause legislation would require an employer to work with employees to correct performance or behavior issues before termination of employment. If modeled off similar legislation existing in other domains and localities, this legislation would also require an employer to give a written reason for termination. Additionally, a mechanism for contesting firings would be put in place."
