- Termination because you are disabled
- Termination because of your sex or gender, and perhaps gender orientation
- Termination because of your age (over 40)
- Termination because of your race or national origin
- Termination because of your religion
- Termination because you requested or took FMLA leave
- Termination because you complained about harassment related to any of the above
- Termination because you complained about a clearly illegal or unsafe condition
