Add Comment Question: I work 2 part time jobs one is in a nursinghome the other is at a convent taking care of the nuns I do the same job at both I am a psw. My nursinghome went into outbreak, I had worked there a 2-10 shift then the very next day I was scheduled at the convent, when I went to the convent my boss called my other job to see when I worked last and they told her the night before she then called me into her office and told me I had to go home and all of my shifts were canceled until the nursinghome was out of outbreak, this happened on Jan 10th the hr person then called me on January 24th and said she wanted to have a quick meeting with me on Jan 26, I went in and they let me know they were terminating me, they said they had no hours for me but meanwhile there's people that have been there less then me and still there and I still had shifts on the schedule, also they told me there was no hours and the letter they gave me said I was not a good fit for there organization, I feel I was wrongfully terminated I feel like I was terminated because my other job was in an outbreak, I feel like this was not my fault and something out of my control, I was wondering if you think I would have a case for wrongful dismissal or not Answer: Thank you for reaching out to our firm. Unfortunately, with certain exceptions, a company can terminate someone for any reason. That being said, so long as it is a without cause termination, they have to pay that employee an appropriate amount of severance. How much that would be depends on several factors and we would need more information from you. Please phone the number below to set-up a consultation with one of our employment lawyers. Comment: Thank you for your comment. Depending on the answer to several different factors that would be involved in the analysis, information which we do not have at the moment, you may be entitled to more than the two weeks of severance that they have offered. At this juncture, we do not know if you have a case or not. The unfortunate reality here is that an employee can be terminated for any reason, whether within their control or not. What makes a termination wrongful in most cases is where the employer does not provide enough severance to a person that they have let go.
