English term
could lead to dismissal
A: My last novel. You said it wasn't deserving of publication. Why?
B: It was like a funeral procession that wouldn't end.
A: Well, thank you. I appreciate your candor.
B: I'm nothing if not forthright, sir.
A: You are indeed. Anyone else in your position might worry that such bold criticism of their employer could lead to dismissal. But not you.
La mia proposta:
[...]
A: [...]. chiunque altro nella sua posizione si preoccuperebbe del fatto che una simile critica al suo datore di lavoro possa spingerlo al licenziamento. Ma non lei
Cerco soluzioni migliori. Grazie!

When entering new questions, KudoZ askers are given an opportunity* to classify the difficulty of their questions as 'easy' or 'pro'. If you feel a question marked 'easy' should actually be marked 'pro', and if you have earned more than 20 KudoZ points, you can click the "Vote PRO" button to recommend that change.
How to tell the difference between "easy" and "pro" questions:
An easy question is one that any bilingual person would be able to answer correctly. (Or in the case of monolingual questions, an easy question is one that any native speaker of the language would be able to answer correctly.)
A pro question is anything else... in other words, any question that requires knowledge or skills that are specialized (even slightly).
Another way to think of the difficulty levels is this: an easy question is one that deals with everyday conversation. A pro question is anything else.
When deciding between easy and pro, err on the side of pro. Most questions will be pro.
* Note: non-member askers are not given the option of entering 'pro' questions; the only way for their questions to be classified as 'pro' is for a ProZ.com member or members to re-classify it.

"Lead" non è riferito al datore di lavoro, "to lead to" è un'espressione che indica la conseguenza naturale di un'azione.
High unemployment led to people buying less
Sitting long hours at the computer leads to backache

possa farlo licenziare
"Spingerlo" mi sembrava un po' ambiguo...
