Add Comment Question: I am currently on mat leave and was trying to coordinate with my work to use vacation prior to returning to work. I was not given any approval so am still technically on mat leave and was let go yesterday. Is this wrongful dismissal Answer: It does sound as if you have been wrongfully dismissed and that this may have been counter to the Human Rights Code. You should speak with one of our employment lawyers immediately. Your Comment * Your Email * Your Name * Your City Note, your name, city and email is not displayed on the website.
