Can an employer sack you with out giving a reason as to why other than i dont think its going to work out?

i have worked for this employer for 3 weeks only to be told that hes letting me go as he thinks its not going to work out as he'd hoped it would; but not stating why this was the case.

Answer:
Probably s/he can as you are on probation.

Don't take it personally. but try to find out what led to their decision so you can make corrections for the future.

Use it as a learning experience.

Be classy, not sassy. ie: be professional in your dealings with the jerk.

Move on. You'll probably find it was the best thing you could have done.

Stay positive!
yes if you were on a probationary period
yes. but you can probably collect unemployment.
bad luck, youre on a probationary period. johnny boss can let you go, withiout rhyme or reason.

type ACAS into google
It depends on which state you live in. Some states are "at will" work states and employers can fire you for whatever reason or no reason.
After 3 weeks then yes, move on and dont worry about it, it was probably down to money reasons more than anything you did.
well i think he can but if i was u i would have damned that u give me an answer
Most probation periods last three months and in that time you can be asked to leave with no explanantion whatsoever. After that you can be discharged with no rights to redundancy until you've worked somewhere for two years. Harsh but that's business.
Yes they can as long as they compensates you according to ESA.
However this in my opinion is a cowardly approach. Giving you feedback is only going to help you in not making the same mistakes going forward. Press him or her on the issue and make them sweat.
es he can if I remember rightly it is up to month he can do this. After that he must give you notice a week at this stage.
He can still dismiss you after tht but he should give reasons. Normally you cannot claim unfair dismissal until you have been employed for 2 years but there are exceptions one being dismissal for union activities
of course they can't. if this has happened to you then you've got yourself a court case.
unfortunately, the employer can make that discretionary decision as it is during your probation period. They are also not obliged to give you a reason - but it may not be anything more specific than it wouldn't work out. personality differences do occur, and the dynamics in a working environment can be altered by a new person coming in.

As there is not much you can do about it, you just need to take it on the chin, dust yourself off, and go and find another job. It is a bit rubbish when it happend, but you'll get it sorted.

Good luck.
if you were not under a full time contract just on a trial basis then sadly yes. happy job hunting..If you have a contract then no sue the bastard
I don't know where you are, but here in Canada there is a 3 month trial period by which the employer can get rid of you at anytime prior to the expiration of the trial period, and without giving you any reason whatsoever, and there is nothing you could do about it.
YES
Only if you are on your probationary period if you have signed a contract then no seek legal advise but get everything in writing from the employer.
They do not have to give a reason.

If you had been there for over 3 months then they would, You obviously haven't signed any sort of contract with them?
i'm afraid he can if your still in your trial period..

HOWEVER. ask them this question..

If you got a second chance what would you have to differently to "make it work". if they still won't give you an answer then explain that your worried it could happen in your next job unless you know how to correct any issues?

good luck matey. hope all goes well for future
you should ask him to elaborate as to why he is sacking you, and give positive feedback which will help you in your next job..it is very unprofessional of him to just dismiss you without reasons, it may be a simple reason, but at least you will know ready for next time your in a job.
Yes. There is no law that requires a reason for termination of an employee. Likewise, you don't have to give a reason for leaving.
It is polite, however, for reasons to be presented but that doesn't often happen.
If you are working in an employment at will state, then the employer can terminate you "at will".
