Legal Question in Employment Law in Arizona

My son works at Kmart and the employees were informed that if each of them didn't get 5 people a day to sign up for their store card, they would be written up and fired.

I've told my son that he needs to get a policy manual and see if that was part of his requirements when he was hired.

I can't imagine that this is proper employment practices as I have been in management my entire life and would never use such scare tactics to motivate my employees.

Thanks for the inquiry. Unfortunately, barring an employment contract stating a termination must be for-cause, the conduct you describe is completely legal. I hope this helps. Thank you.
