Add Comment Question: I have been working for my employer for 10 years. For the last 7, as an agreement for my return from maternity leave, I have been working exclusively from home. Today, my manager said that I would have to start coming in to the office twice a week, starting immediately, with the number of days per week increasing in November. I live in Kitchener and my office is in Mississaiga, a distance of 100km one way. If I am required to go in 5 days a week, the cost of commuting alone is nearly $7000/year. This does not include an increase in car insurance, the need for a babysitter due to me being out of the house. I am just wondering if this situation is grounds for constructive dismissal. I can't continue with these conditions either way as I can't afford the costs of commuting on a $44,000 per year salary, but would like to know if I should even consider a constructive dismissal suit. Thank you, Karen Sparks Answer: This may be grounds for constructive dismissal, however it is very important you speak with an employment lawyer before you make any decisions.
