Employment in Georgia is at will, and employees can be terminated for any or no reason (with few exceptions for unlawful discrimination). There is no requirement of "fair." You may have more rights given to you in the handbook (or a contract), such as a right to an investigation, but you'll need to review your handbook carefully.
