Unfortunately, there really isn't anything that you can do unless you are afforded some protection under the terms of an employment contract or union agreement. Otherwise, as an "at will" worker, you can be susnede/termiated for any reason or no reason at all, with or without notice. The fact si that a business can set the conditions of the workplace much as it sees fit (absent some form of legally actionable discrimination).
