Generally, your employer can '''fire ''' you whenever they want. But they need to give you notice, or pay you instead. Among the exceptions: if they fire you for “just cause”.
==Understand your legal rights==
===Other laws apply if you quit or were laid off===
This information applies if you were '''fired''' (dismissed) from your job, not if you quit (voluntarily resigned). If you quit, see our information on [[If You Quit Your Job (No. 280)|if you quit your job (no. 280)]]. If you’ve been temporarily let go from your work, see our information on [[Getting Temporarily Laid Off (No. 281)|getting temporarily laid off (no. 281)]].
===Your legal rights depend on the type of worker you are===
