Are your answers geared toward Ontario employers and employees. I as an employee in another Province and think I may be faced with constructive dismissal, the writing seems to be on the wall the employer is trying to push me out. 1) If it happens and I have to fight this, is there a mandated deadline when a decision has to be made so that the employee is not left for a long time without income 2) Would I be entitled to Employment insurance during this period and if I go the EI route do I then lose my claim for constructive dismissal. Been with employer for over 5 years am on salary. Thank you Marie

I am the senior person in our department with 16.5 yrs. The new director has hired 5 new young staff in the past six months to do the same type of job as I do. I was terminated today. my age is 59. I suspect this is age discrimination and wrongfull dismissal. I work in computer technology for a multinational company.

My wife had a conversation with her assistant manager and basically said she would hand in her 2 weeks notice the following day. We talked about it that night and she decided to continue working for a few more months. Today she was told that due to the discussion with her coworker her resignation was accepted and she is no longer employed. I’m assuming she is entitled to 2 weeks termination pay but does she have any other recourse for wrongful dismissal?
