Guz v. Bechtel National Inc.

Please read the case, Guz v. Bechtel National Inc. on page 99-100 and discuss the following questions:

1. Based on Guz, can the implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing apply to any conditions not actually stated in a contract? In other words, can the covenant apply to anything beyond that which is actually stated in an employment contract? If not, is there no implied covenant as long as someone is at-will without a contract? (1 page, double-spaced)

2. Explain the distinction between the courts discussion of the covenant of good faith and fair dealing and the possibility of an implied contract term. (1 page, double-spaced)

3. How might an employer create an implied-in-fact term and how could a failure to follow such policies when terminating an employee create a breach of the contract? (1 page, double-spaced)
