Add Comment Question: I was hired full time and since been layed off (with no notice) due to shortage of work, I had a surgery scheduled and they layed me off, either due to that or the fact I questioned many of the company safety practices. Either way it has now been approx 11 weeks and I think they have no plans of rehiring me. they have not paid me any termination pay either Answer: Thank you for contacting our firm. If an employer lays off an employee but fails to recall them, it becomes a termination. The employee would then be entitled to pay in lieu of notice for the termination. The extent of the employee's entitlement would depend on a variety of factors, including whether or not there is an enforceable termination provision in a contract of employment.
