If coming here to post a thread about it will make you feel better, then you don't need to be in that position of authority.

So you fired a worker for being in contact with someone with the flu. Good move.


for trying to hide it.

not for actually being in contact with someone.

I can't see firing someone for this. Maybe furloughing them for quarantine, but firing is extreme. Either way, it will probably work out better for the exemployee than you.

So you didn't fire anyone, you ran them off, sent them to the beach, etc., etc.

Are you in a nursing home or something? If you go to the store even for bread or TP nowadays, you’ve been in contact. On top of that, it will have gone through most of us within a year.

He’ll make more in the impending lawsuit against your company for wrongful termination than he would have made had he not been fired.

So you fired someone because of your own fear? Congrats, I guess.

It’ll still cost $10k to get this dismissed on MSJ assuming the judge even buys your nonsense.

Not if the company had a disclosed form the employees had to sign to remain working as essential workers like I would assume most companies do.

If he was hiding it, how did you find out?

this very thread may be used in the court case when/if he sues you


Louisiana is an at will employment state with very little exceptions. Unless he is a civil service employee, he can be fired because his fricking hair wasn’t brushed that day.
