[Pedicurist License] Briana Applied for a Job at Nedra's Salon

Question 42

Multiple Choice

[Pedicurist license] Briana applied for a job at Nedra's salon as a pedicurist and signed an employment contract with Nedra. The contract contained a provision that stated, "Employee cannot be terminated for poor performance without prior notice and thirty days to improve performance." After Briana worked for Nedra for two months, Nedra noticed Briana did not follow standard public health procedures for pedicures. Nedra called the state licensing agency and found out that Briana's pedicurist license had expired ten years ago. Nedra's state requires that, in order to protect public health, all pedicurists must be licensed by the state in order to perform pedicures at salons within the state. Briana claimed that, according to the explicit terms of the contract, Nedra could not terminate her for poor performance without first giving her notice and thirty days to improve her performance.
-If Briana subsequently obtains a valid license, would her agreement with Nedra be enforceable?


A) Yes, but only if she pays the licensing fee.
B) Yes, but only if Nedra did not deem the contract voidable.
C) Yes, because the contract can be severed.
D) No, because the agreement was illegal and is void.
E) No, because employment contracts cannot be severed.
