Generally, no. In Wisconsin, municipal employees are generally classified as "at will" employees. In the absence of a civil service ordinance or law, or a contract or collective bargaining agreement or other document stating otherwise such as a personnel policy or employee handbook, "at will" employees may be terminated with or without cause, with or without notice by the employer. See State ex rel. Epping v. City of Neilsville, 218 Wis.2d 516, 581 N.W.2d 548, 552; (Ct. App. 1998); Vorwald v. School District, 167 Wis.2d 549, 482 N.W.2d 93, 96 (1992). However, a municipal employee may not be discharged for unlawful reasons (e.g., discrimination based on, among other things, race, gender, age, or national origin).
