Answer to Question 1

The word tort means a civil wrong not based upon a preexisting contractual relationship. By and large, tort law is the law of personal injury. Its application to employer-employee relationship is affected by workers' compensation insurance, which immunizes the employer from some tort liabilities.

Answer to Question 2

Retaliatory demotion cases are somewhat more delicate than wrongful discharge suits, as the plaintiff remains an employee of the defendant-firm, unless the latter takes the next step and actually fires him/her.
