I think we've got the toughest labour laws here in Germany.
Even here we have a couple of reasons which justify an immediate firing of a person. Stealing company property is one, starting a fight another one, sexual harassment a third.

If the employee fells he was wrongfully dismissed, he can allways go to laybour court.
