A discharge is wrongful if an employee who is no longer a probationary employee is terminated without good cause. A discharge is also wrongful if it is in retaliation for the employee's refusal to violate public policy or for reporting a violation of public policy.
A release is a legal document that records an employee's agreement to relinquish their right to make any future claims against their employer relating to their employment or the termination of their employment. A release is essentially a contract between the terminated employee and the employer.
Terminating is when one party declares the contract is at an end. Releasing the contract means both parties agree that it's over.
No. Montana is not an at will state. In some instances, the Wrongful Discharge From Employment Act does not apply, but generally, once an employee has completed the established probationary period, the employer needs to have good cause for termination.
Fraud, misrepresentation, duress, or unconscionability are common defenses you can use if you want to void a severance agreement that you already signed.
You'll essentially need two kinds of paperwork: documents you need to gather before you actually fire the person (such as their hours worked and paid-time-off balances due), and documents you'll need to bring to the termination meeting itself such as a severance agreement or their final paycheck.
Federally, and in most states, a termination letter is not legally required. In some states, currently including Arizona, California, Illinois and New Jersey, written termination notices are required by law. Some of these states have specific templates employers must use for the letter.
If your employer offers a severance package, you can make a counteroffer, but you should do so with caution. Just as your employer typically does not have to offer you any severance, your employer can withdraw an offer if you do not accept it before it is withdrawn.
