Carol Hurley+FollowFired for Using PTO? Ethical Concerns in the WorkplaceMy husband was fired from his corporate job for “extensive absenteeism” after taking just 3 days off this year—all for medical surgeries. He informed his boss in advance, but their response was cold: “Doesn’t matter—this is an At Will State.” When he questioned if his performance was an issue, the reply was the same. We suspect the real reason was cost-cutting; he was one of the highest-paid employees, and the company was overstaffed. The toxic work environment and his boss’s poor behavior suggest this firing might have been planned. Is it ethical to fire someone for using PTO, especially for medical reasons? How can “At Will State” be used as an excuse for such decisions? It feels unjust and heartbreaking. #AtWillEmployment #WorkplaceEthics #FiredForPTO #ToxicWorkplace #JobTermination #JobCareer158Share
