No. Even if your employer found out about your bankruptcy, federal law prohibits an employer from firing an employee for filing for bankruptcy. Although this law will not protect an employee who has other job issues, resolving financial issues often improves an employee’s performance. Think about it from an employer’s perspective: would you rather have an employee who was distracted by harassing creditors and financial problems, or an employee who has resolved these issues and can concentrate on the job?
