Add Comment Question: I have been with the same company for the past 20 years. Unfortunately, I am being suspended since Monday for some minor incident at work. If they have decided to ask me to sign the termination document and offer me the take it (a lot less in severance than I deserve) or leave it option, should I have a legal council with me to negotiate the terms or everything is set in stone and cannot be changed? Answer: You have significant termination entitlements after 20 years with the same employer and a minor incident at work does not cancel your right to adequate notice or pay in lieu. Do not sign anything on the spot and call me at 416-216-5906 after you hear back from your employer. Lumi Pungea Comment: As I said, please give us a call to discuss this.
