    As long as you have a contract with the employer, the employer has no right to fire the employee at will, if the unit is not efficient and needs to lay off employees, the employer should also compensate the laid-off employee for certain economic losses, so if the employer wants to fire the employee, it is necessary to compensate for a certain amount of expenses.

    An employment contract is signed between the employer and the employee. This has the force of law. It can be used to protect the rights and interests of individuals, and it can also be used to protect the rights of units.

    If you violate the relevant regulations of the employer, the employer can be dismissed in accordance with the labor law and the contract. But you can't just fire an employee without any reason.

    If you have been treated unfairly, you can go to your local labor arbitration department and ask for a settlement.

    If not, you can sue in court.

    Case: Tan worked in a quality inspection unit and signed an indefinite labor contract with the unit, agreeing on a monthly salary of 2,000 yuan, but the unit has not paid unemployment insurance premiums for Tan. Later, Tan found out that she was pregnant.

    The unit verbally informed Tan not to come to work again on the grounds of insufficient funds.

    Subsequently, Tan sent a "Letter of Appeal for Resumption of Work" to the employer on the grounds that the employer was not allowed to terminate the labor contract during pregnancy, but the latter never gave a reply. After the trial of the case, the court ruled that the unit should pay Tan 10,000 yuan in compensation for the illegal termination of the labor contract and 10,000 yuan in compensation for the economic loss of unemployment insurance.

    In this case, the parties established an employment relationship from the date of employment. The indefinite-term labor contract signed by both parties is the true expression of the intention of both parties and is legal and valid. The employer dismissed Tan without legal reasons, and after Tan informed him in writing that he was pregnant and asked to resume work, the employer still did not take remedial measures, which constituted an illegal termination of the labor contract.

    The trial judge pointed out that in accordance with the provisions of the Labor Contract Law of the People's Republic of China, if an employer dissolves or terminates a labor contract in violation of the provisions of this Law, it shall pay compensation to the employee in accordance with twice the prescribed economic compensation standard.

    In addition, the employer illegally terminated the labor contract and caused Tan to lose his job, and he did not pay unemployment insurance premiums for Tan before that, resulting in Tan not being able to enjoy unemployment insurance benefits. Therefore, the unit should also compensate Tan for losses according to the standard of twice the unemployment insurance money.
