Recent Q&As in Connecticut (Wrongful Termination)

My employer demanded I risk personal liability or lose my job. I refused, and they fired me the next day. | Aug 22, 2026 | Sourced from Reddit
Location: CT I was directed to authorize the transfer of sensitive company accounts, despite being unable to verify that I had the authority to make the transfer or that the proposed recipient was authorized to receive them. If I transferred the accounts to the wrong person, I was concerned that I could be personally liable for providing unauthorized access. I declined to personally authorize the transfer but remained willing to cooperate through the providers’ established procedures. I was threatened with being treated as having resigned, expressly denied resigning, and was terminated the next day. My termination notice demanded that the accounts be transferred to a different person. Afterward, yet another person claimed authority and threatened me with legal action and personal liability unless the same accounts were transferred to them. That seems to confirm the exact risk that caused me to refuse the original demand. One provider later confirmed that I should not authorize a transfer without knowing the proper recipient and that the company had an established process for recovering access. I have read Sheets v. Teddy’s Frosted Foods, Sieranski v. TJC Esquire Association, and Dunn v. Northeast Helicopters. Those cases appear to address termination connected to an employee’s refusal to violate a specific legal duty or participate in conduct contrary to a clearly established public policy. Could those cases support Connecticut’s narrow public policy exception here, particularly where complying could have exposed me to liability for transferring sensitive accounts without verified authority?
