Question

An employer may not ordinarily legally terminate an employee if it is done?

a) As a result of documented progressive discipline
b) To deny accrued benefits
c) Because of legitimate illness or absence from work
d) A and B
e) B and C

Answer 1

An employer may not ordinarily legally terminate an employee if it is done because of legitimate illness or absence from work and to deny accrued benefits. The correct answer is e) B and C.

Step-by-step explanation:

An employer may not ordinarily legally terminate an employee if it is done because of legitimate illness or absence from work (option c) and to deny accrued benefits (option b).

Both of these are protected by laws such as the Age Discrimination in Employment Act and Title VII of the Civil Rights Act. However, if the termination is a result of documented progressive discipline (option a), it may be legally permissible.
