Add Comment Question: I have worked in a little restaurant in Ontario for about 6 moths as part time employee,I Am a college student. Last week I got call in from work asked to come to work for replacing someone else. I came in that day and at the end of the day I have received a notice of termination saying "Your employment with us at our company will concluded". They also stated that following with the ESA and your employment being under one year with the company only 7 days notice is required(without saying any reason??) I have done nothing wrong, no serious or repeated warnings received more then once. Can they legally fire their employee this rudely? I am shocked please help me. Answer: Generally an employer can terminate you at any time, without even having to provide a reason why, as long as you are terminated on a 'without cause' basis and paid your proper termination entitlements. Under the ESA you would be entitled to one-weeks' pay and benefits continuation. You could potentially be owed more severance under the common law. I recommend you contact our office to schedule a consult with one of our Paralegals or lawyers so we can review your matter further and determine any termination entitlements you may have.
