The State of North Carolina is an employment at will state. This means that your employer can terminate you for any reason without cause. In North Carolina, however, federal and state law applies and you may have a cause of action against your employer if they violate these laws.

Severance Agreements
Unemployment Hearings
Employee Grievances including Arbitrations, mediations and hearings.
