Add Comment Question: The store that I work at ended up changing the ownership of the business. He sent us an e-mail regarding the situation and told us we would all be terminated, unless they do decide to re-hire us. This e-mail was sent on Friday, October 7th , 2016 and he expects the ownership to be changed by Saturday, October 15th, 2016. I don't think that is lengthy enough to allow us time to find new jobs in case the new ownership does not re-hire us. Thank you for your response! Answer: If the new employer does not provide you with an offer of employment, your previous employer owes you termination pay. 1 week of notice of termination is certainly not sufficient. On the other hand, if the new employer does offer you employment, you should have this offer reviewed by a lawyer. Therefore, please contact our firm as soon as possible to discuss this matter in more detail and determine how we can protect your rights.
