If I was told not to come into work because they believe that I brought in bedbugs do they have to provide me proof?

I was told they found bedbugs near my locker which I share with a co-worker. There are 6 other lockers near mine and I don’t even use the locker. Do they have to provide proof of the infestation?

No, Arizona is an at will employment state, which means you can be fired for any reason, except a discriminatory one.
