Add Comment Question: can You get fired from work while being on A suspension from work ? Answer: Thank you for your question. An employer can fire you at any time. The question is whether they will owe you severance, and if so, how much. If you have been placed on a suspension for serious misconduct, and you did actually commit serious misconduct, an employer may not owe you severance, due to it having just cause for dismissal. However, just cause is very difficult for an employer to prove, because the conduct must be extremely serious in order for them to avoid paying severance. Therefore, if you have been fired, I would recommend contacting us at the number below for a consultation. Kindly note that there is a two year limitation period from the date of your notice of termination to bring any civil claims.
