I was terminated on Feb 9/15 for "prior stuff" no elaboration of what. I was to open an envelope and read for further information which states it was for cause - the act of workplace harassment. I believe this is wrongful dismissal , I unaware of what they are basing this decision on. The union steward was present but offered no support and only advised me while smiling not to get mad and just read the papers when I get home and then human resources manager said I could call him with any questions. I am trying to file a grievance with the union higher than the steward and still waiting for reply.

My wife has been with her company for three years in a supervisory capacity with a staff of ten. She has had excellent reviews and meeting her KPIs at 98%. Recently the former supervisor realized that his position would soon be phased out and he and my wife's manager have collaborated together. As a result she was told yesterday that she does not think outside of the box enough and would be more suited to a position outside of her core competency with a substantial pay cut or she would be terminated should she refuse the offer. I felt that this seemed like a case of constructive dismissal and would like to know if she may have grounds to proceed and what steps should be taken.
