I was fired for having an altercation (pushing each other around) with another employee and I didn't receive any severance after 9yrs of employment last year March. Is there anything I can do to receive a severance

Hi i was a supervisor for a large gta company and have been employed for there since 205. I was fired last week for just cause and they accused me of stealing. I was followed by people that the company hired for almost 2 months. They followed me when i was off of work in the evening and on weekends. I put it all together once these people sat me down with HR and questioned me about my boss trying to get me to say things about him in which i wouldnt. My boss was also fired and a foreman that worked directly for me was fired. None of us were paid anything other than the 2 weeks that we had already worked. I asked them for the proof that i was stealing and they claimed they did not have to provide me with anything. I was an excellent employee and lived and breathed for the company. Our client is still in disbelif that we were all let go and the management that should be fired kept there jobs. I believe i should be entilted to pay. Any help would be much appreciated as I cannot believe i do not have a job. I have never been in trouble at work with zero write ups or warnings.

Hi, I am likely to be RA'd (resource actioned) in the next few months and will likely be receiving a severance package. I will (I imagine) be given some time to review the package before I am required by the company to sign it. My question is - is there a minimum amount of time that I must be given for that review (as I would like to discuss it with a lawyer)

Is 6 months notice with a requirement to work only 3 days a week during this period with full pay, considered to be part of the severance package?

I am a sight impaired professional working at a medium sized company. If I am let go from my job, am I entitled to any extra severance or other compensationdue to my disability?
