At-Will Employment In Washington: A Review Of Thompson V. Sl Regis Paper Co. And Its Progeny, Richard Wall Jan 1990

At-Will Employment In Washington: A Review Of Thompson V. Sl Regis Paper Co. And Its Progeny, Richard Wall

Seattle University Law Review

The purpose of this Article is to examine the nature and origin of the issues now being faced by Washington courts in the area of at will employment and to argue that the well-established legal principles governing other kinds of contracts be consistently applied to at will employment contracts. This will result in a proper balance between the desire to protect at will employees from unfair termination and the need to allow employers the freedom to make decisions in the hiring and termination of at will employees without undue interference. This Article will first review the historical development of the …

Hiring Ruled Contractual, Bill Gore, Douglas A. Kahn, Stan Shields

Articles

On December 29, 1988, the California Supreme Court decided Foley vs. Interactive Data Corp., perhaps the most eagerly awaited state supreme court decision in years. The Foley ruling, which immediately was hailed as a tremendous victory for California employers, eliminated punitive damage awards for many wrongfully terminated employees. That was good news for the employers. The decision, however, also provided employers with sobering news. Most significantly, the court ruled that employment relationships essentially are contracts, with terms created by the reasonable expectation of the parties. Thus, the majority of California employees now have a right to sue for breach …

Challenging The Employment-At-Will Doctrine Through Modern Contract Theory, Clare Tully Jan 1983

Challenging The Employment-At-Will Doctrine Through Modern Contract Theory, Clare Tully

University of Michigan Journal of Law Reform

This Note advocates an implied contract analysis that both satisfies contractual requirements and protects the reasonable expectations of employees and employers. Part I describes the various reliance interests that employees bring to their jobs, the employer inducements that cause this reliance, and the business benefits that accrue when employees rely upon these inducements. Part II examines in detail judicial reluctance to enforce either these reliance interests or employer promises as contract rights under the at-will doctrine. Part II also urges the increased use of modern contract theories such as promissory estoppel, quasi-contract, and implied contract to protect employee reliance interests …

Post-Contractual Arbitrability After Nolde Brothers: A Problem Of Conceptual Clarity, Arthur S. Leonard Jan 1983

Post-Contractual Arbitrability After Nolde Brothers: A Problem Of Conceptual Clarity, Arthur S. Leonard

Articles & Chapters

In Nolde Brothers, Inc. v. Local No. 358, Bakery & Confectionery Workers Union,' the Supreme Court held that a labor-management grievance dispute which arose after the expiration of a collective bargaining agreement might, under certain circumstances, be compulsorily arbitrable even though no successor agreement providing for arbitration had been entered into by the parties.2 In so holding, however, the Supreme Court was imprecise in articulating the factors underlying its determination,3 leaving to the lower courts and the National Labor Relations Board (Board) the considerable task of adopting the broadly phrased Nolde rationale-a presumption of continuing arbitrability- to differing situations where …

"Working To The Contract" In Virginia: Legal Consequences Of Teachers Attempts To Limit Their Contractual Duties, Rebecca D. Bray Jan 1982

"Working To The Contract" In Virginia: Legal Consequences Of Teachers Attempts To Limit Their Contractual Duties, Rebecca D. Bray

University of Richmond Law Review

In 1980, there were 233,000 local government employees in Virginia. Of this number, 60,588 were public school teachers employed by local school boards for the 1980-81 school year. Characterized as both professionals and public employees, public school teachers not only "teach the children" but perform many other duties crucial to the efficient operation of the schools. These additional responsibilities are generally assigned by the teacher's immediate supervisor, usually the school principal, under authority granted by the local school board. Like other state and local government employees in Virginia, teachers have no power to collectively negotiate their contracutal duties' which they …

Employee Covenants Not To Compete: Where Does Virginia Stand?, Ann R. Bergan, Kenneth E. Chadwick, Hugh T. Harrison Ii, Barrett E. Pope

University of Richmond Law Review

Courts for some time now have been forced to deal with the validity of covenants not to compete as contained in employment contracts. Considered to be a restraint against trade, these covenants under common law were viewed with disfavor, if not hostility, both nationally and in the Commonwealth of Virginia, as being contrary to the American ideals of individual freedom, competition, and the free flow of commerce. As such they were seldom upheld. It was only after the courts recognized that employers had legitimate concerns and interests worthy of protections that reasonable covenants not to compete began to be enforced …
