Legal Question in Employment Law in Georgia

Possible Character Defamation

My 48 year old husband has been suspended pending investigation by his employer. They forced him to sign a list of ''infractions'' and refused to give him a copy. The so-called ''infractions'' were normal issues that occur for an event (he is in operations for a food & beverage company at a sporting venue), and are things that have happened many times in the past with no action. Most of the items listed were out of his span of control, and some were items he could not prevent (an electrical short on a grill, for example). We believe his company is campaigning to terminate him, as they have had a pattern of doing with all former employees of the former employer. We understand that Georgia is a will to employ state, meaning he can be fired without cause. That would be understandable; what we do not understand is why they are continuing to attack his professional character when he does an excellent job (as recognized by the only customer of the employer in this state)? Does he have any recourse at all? He doesn't necessarily want to keep his job; he just doesn't want his reputation destroyed unjustly.
