Скачать или смотреть Employment Law in Arizona: Myths vs. Facts | Tempe Employment Lawyer Explains

Think you know your Arizona workplace rights? In this video, our Tempe employment lawyer breaks down common myths vs. facts about Arizona employment law so you can spot problems early and protect yourself. Whether you’re dealing with wrongful termination, unpaid wages, workplace harassment, or retaliation, understanding what the law actually says can make all the difference.

Myths vs. Facts we cover:

Myth: Arizona is “at-will,” so I can be fired for any reason.
Fact: At-will doesn’t allow firing for illegal reasons (discrimination, retaliation, protected leave, whistleblowing).
Myth: Salaried employees can’t get overtime.
Fact: Exempt vs. non-exempt is about job duties and pay thresholds—not just a salary label.
Myth: If I didn’t report harassment in writing, I have no case.
Fact: You should follow policy, but employers still have obligations to address harassment once they know or should know.
Myth: Non-competes are always enforceable in Arizona.
Fact: They must be reasonable in scope, duration, and geography—and protect legitimate business interests.
Myth: I can’t discuss my pay.
Fact: Pay discussions are often protected; retaliation for doing so can be unlawful.
Myth: Sick leave or medical leave is never protected.
Fact: Certain leave may be protected by federal/state law and employer policies; retaliation for using it can be illegal.

When to call an employment attorney:

You were fired after reporting discrimination, safety issues, or illegal conduct.
You’re facing harassment, discrimination, or a hostile work environment.
