Just like the above says. Is this legal? A company approaches someone and says "we can't afford to keep you, we have nothing for you to do in the company, you must leave within 6 months, but if you tell anyone in the company you will be fired immediately". Various other positions also open up within the company in which she is qualified for and she is not being offered them. Another strange coincidence is she is also in divorce precedings with her husband whom works in the corporate headquarters. (Husband does not make any executive decisions, but has worked for the company for almost two decades.) Should she get a lawyer and what rights, if any, are being violated? Does a company have right to put a 'gag order' on its employees in this fashion?
