Add Comment Question: I am hearing that in my new job that people are having trouble getting the benefits after the 3 months. I am month 2. I really need them, my wife has epilepsy and my son and I both require some meds. I am afraid when I go in with about a week to go before my benefits are to start and bring it up I may get 2 of 3 possible outcomes. 1- they stall and they don't start when they should. is that a constructive dismissal? I can leave and seek a lawyers help? or 2- I am let go. the reason I say that is because they weren't to thrilled I had to be of when my grandmother passed(I know)(rude) and today I took a good size chunk out of my thumb. after it was bandaged and 20 minutes it was bothering me and in decided I needed to go to the dr or hospital. when I explained this to the owner lady the was very rude and said whatever. I phone after the hospital and said I would be off tomorrow and my wsib form said limited use of hand for 2 days, she said whatever again, I think she may have put me on hold to swear. so I am getting bad vibes from her. so if I am let go just before my 3 months are up or and or when I ask about my benefits, do I have a course of action or no? sorry for then long email. I was trying to give as much info as possible. also I am not getting what was discussed during the interview with the son. I am getting 50 cents less. the mother showed me the paper but never signed it. so I am stuck at the rate that is less. but I moved on from that. I learn to always make sure things are signed even if the employer forgets. thanks for your time Dale Answer: You have raised a lot of questions and hypothetical situation above, and we are not able to provide a thorough response to you by way of this online forum.
