Hi, and Welcome to JustAnswer, Thank you for your question,


My name is Andrea, and I am a Licensed, practicing Attorney,



During prior negotiations between your Union and the Hosptial/Employer, if your Union obtained for you either written assurances from the Hospital/Employer that your jobs and resective positions were secure for a certain period of time, or your Union obtained written Employment Agreements which specified, among other things, the conditions or circumstances under which you coukd be terminated, then your jobs and positions are secure and if you are terminated, you can sue the Hospital/Employer for "Wrongful Termination" and seek damages,


If, however, neither of the two options mentioned above were obtained for you, then your employment is "At Will" which means that the Hospital/Employer can terminate such employee at any time for any reason, or for no reason. It is very unfortunate that almost all the States are "At Will" Employment situations because they leave the employee with no recourse, or redress against the employer. I am sure that your Union Representative will protect your interests and will have something favorable worked out with the Hospital/Employer.


I wish I could give you a more definite Answer and the one you were hoping for, but I have an ethical obligation to you to give you only correct Answers, so I am respectfully XXXXX XXXXX you not hold the law applicable to your employment situation against me,
