Hello, and thank you for contacting Just Answer.
In the absence of an employment contract, an employee is employed "at-will", and as such an employer can change the terms and conditions of their employment up to and including termination.
Unfortunately, this includes terminating an employee for posting on facebook or any other social media site.
Ultimately in such a situation the employee may be able to explain the situation to the employer what happened in order to avoid discipline. However, ultimately, there is no legal mechanism for the employee to stop the employer from terminating the employment relationship. An employer has the right to terminate someone for making comments on a social media site.
