Would making inquiries into possible illegal activities be a "protected activity"
This involves a franchised commercial cleaning company to which I was employed, (2 yrs-one raise - no disipline actions) I began to check on some of the activities of the Master Owner. I can prove on no less than four occasions he willfully violated the contract. I began making inquiries, actually told him I was doing so, and was terminated. I now receive Unemployment. I feel this is grounds for a wrongful termination suit using the public policy exception to the at-will employment laws.
Am I correct ?? -- making inquiries into possible legal activity is a protected activity.
