Most employment is "at will", which means that a company can set the conditions of the workplace much as it sees fit. This includes who to suspend and why. In fact, a worker can be susended (or terminated) for any reason or no reason at all, with or without notice. This all holds true unless there is an employment or union agreement that prohibits your employer's action or unless your treatment constitues some form of legally actionable discrimination.
