Add Comment Question: I was just terminated without explanation except "not a good fit for the direction the organization is going". I've worked there approx. 2yrs 9.5 mths and I got 8wks severance. This was a total surprise. There was no disciplinary action, notification that I wasn't doing my job, etc. Is this sufficient to sue or not? Answer: Your employer has the right to end your employment for any reason, however arbitrary, as long as it does not discriminate against you and provides you with adequate notice or pay in lieu of notice. The length of your service is only one of the factors that determine whether 8 weeks is adequate termination pay. The other factors are your age and the nature of your position and level of compensation. Take a look at our severance calculator (http://www.severancepaycalculator.com) and give me a call (416-216-5906) if you would like to discuss your specific circumstances further. Lumi Pungea. Comment: Hi Sandra, I assume you meant to write 52 weeks instead of 52 months. If that is the case and you were offered 52 weeks after 21 years of service, you may have significantly greater severance entitlements. Feel free to give me a call at 415-216-5906 to discuss you matter in greater detail. Lumi Pungea.
