I would doubt it very much.
In this state, your better off not giving a reason for a firing.
Texas is a right-to-work state and any employee can fire any employee who is not in a protected class for any reason. Must be prepared to pay the higher unemployment compensation tax that rises from their filing for unemployment unless you can show cause however. Sounds justified to me.... Obama care means lower reimbursements, overhead has to be cut...employee salaries/benefits are first place to cut! In our practice, the higher wage earners are likely to get hit first... regardless of the bumper stickers on their cars at election time...who can prove I remember which employees had hope and change tags on their bumpers? They hoped and now I’m gonna have to make a change.
