Re: Salary employee / Demotion
Probably yes. It depends on a number of factors that you haven't listed; but if the employer has the right to fire you, they also have the right to demote you, pay you less, or change your rate of pay from salary to hourly. If they did this rather than fire the employee to avoid having to pay unemployment insurance you would have a different set of issues.
