A Right Of Fair Dismissal: Enforcing A Statutory Guarantee, Janice R. Bellace
A Right Of Fair Dismissal: Enforcing A Statutory Guarantee, Janice R. Bellace
University of Michigan Journal of Law Reform
Support for the concept that employees should be protected against wrongful dismissal continues to grow in this country. Yet, many advocates of protection have thus far refrained from venturing into the legislative arena. Even though the movement to achieve this protection is still at an early stage, it is not too soon to focus on specific proposals designed to translate ideals into protections.

The article implies that the profit standard inadequately measures the success of a public utility, and suggests the adoption of an eclectic standard that measures enterprise success in terms of economic viability, response to public need, and quality of service rendered. The proposed model involves the rediscovery, application, and combination of two organizational concepts: the public corporation and the interstate compact.

Bills advocating an administrative court were again introduced in the Seventy-Fourth, Seventy-Fifth, and Seventy-Sixth Congress. The most recent proposal came in 1949. None were ever passed.
