Add Comment Question: I was verbally told my hours would not be affected, as 2 new receptionists were hired on my 3 mth probation date & once trained they let me go. Said nothing negative, good reference & 2 weeks pay...I don’t feel this is an adequate answer. Answer: My name is David Vaughan and I am an employment lawyer with Samfiru Tumarkin. While your employer is permitted to terminate your employment, it should provide you with more than 2 weeks' pay as a severance package.
