Cover Story: Remote work has changed the dynamic of many people’s jobs, often altering the tasks and boundaries of employment, blurring the lines between work and home, public and private. US employment law, based on the powerful employment-at-will doctrine, sets a standard but can sometimes be a blunt instrument. Is there any nuance to be found from employers in these unprecedented times of COVID-19? We discuss the doctrine of employment-at-will, the standard it creates for American employment, and the various exceptions to it that have arisen over the past several decades. We examine hypothetical workplace scenarios that could arise in a work-from-home environment. The paper discusses how current law would address them, and whether the letter of the law is the best source of guidance. View this paper.
