Strictly speaking, constructive dismissal is when you deliberately make things so bad that the employee quits. In the UK, the employer would then be treated as if they had fired the employee without cause, but I'm not sure if the US has this concept, and it all varies between states anyway.

If they are intending to actually fire him, that would not be constructive dismissal anyway.
