>Imagine getting fired for something you have no control over, or didn't even realize was getting penalized for.

That is life, that could always happen, the right thing is to accept the fact and plan accordingly.

If i took any kind of job I acknowledge that there always possibility that I'm going to be fired for something I have no control.

Sure, but I can't imagine you'd plan for being fired for being locked out of your work area. There's a difference between having your house blow down by a hurricane vs having your house blown down by a slight breeze, and this would appear to be the latter.

Also, even in the US, you can sue for wrongful termination depending on circumstances.

The reason of being fired is beside the point.

Employer should be able to fire anyone for any reason.

Likewise employee should be able to quit for any reason.

"You're free to quit" doesn't sound like the most correct groundwork to build an honest society.
