At Issue:
The Employment-At-Will Doctrine - allows employees to be fired for any or no reason, even if unfair or unjust.
  Born: 1066 - The Magna Carta

International Labor Organization (ILO) - Recommends that countries abandon the Employment-At-Will Doctrine in favor of a Just Cause Standard.

The United States ignores the ILO and holds fast to the nearly 1000 year old rule.

Is it time for a change?
