Add Comment Question: hi ive been working 15 years with a company and was layed off april 2014 and was not contacted within 35 weeks which was stated in their contract would be considered permanent layoff. When i went in to work to find out about about my termination pay i was told they tried to contact me but i did not respond so they said i abandoned my job..They gave me a wrong address where they were sending my mail but have been sending other mail to me recently to my right address...what are the possible actions i can take from here? Answer: Thank you for your question. This is considered a termination. You are owed your full entitlements. For you, depending on your age and position, that could be anywhere from 12 - 20 months of compensation. It is important that you call me as soon as possible to discuss this.
