Add Comment Question: I was fired from a call center job after working for the company for 4 years. There was no warning, I had one bad call and was walked into an office two days later and was fired. I have been given 3 weeks severance, but feel the dismissal was unfair. Are they legally permitted to fire somebody without warning? Answer: Unfortunately an incident like the one you are describing is sufficient to trigger the company's decision to let you go. While you cannot get the job back, you are owed a severance package that is meant to assist you while you are looking for another employment. The payment of three weeks is likely not adequate and you may be owed significantly more, depending on factors such as your age.
