In Florida, No laws require a private employer to provide prior written or oral notice prior to termination, lay offs, suspensions, nor requirement to give any prior warning. In some circumstances, a civil claim for breach of contract if the employer did not follow the company employee guidebook and procedures may be argued as a breach of contract, but, Florida has not judicially nor by statute provide such a law.
