Overview: The article says an employer who wants to get rid of a troublesome employee need only sing the words of that old sad luck song - in theory, at least. State law makes Illinois an "employment-at-will" state, meaning an employer can hire or fire a worker at any time for any reason, or no reason. In practice, however, firing an employee may land an employer in a tangle of administrative and legal proceedings and monetary damage awards. Such awards, not to mention related legal fees, can harm small businesses financially.
