Add Comment Question: If you have worked for 14 years and was fired because of not comleteling a online training course(I was a couple days late because I don't have a computer at home and couldn't do it at work because it is to busy)does that give them a right to fire me?I received a termination letter stating my course wasn't done and then they brought up something I had been suspened for a month prior and also used that to fire me.If I have been disaplined for something already can they use that against me for the termination? They said it is "with just cause" so does this mean they don't have to pay me severnce pay or anything? Answer: Thank you for your question. My name is Jon Pinkus and I am an employment lawyer at Samfiru Tumarkin LLP. What you have described does not sound like it would be just cause for dismissal. The standard to establish just cause is very high, and is reserved for particularly egregious conduct. Therefore, based on what you described you would be entitled to compensation for wrongful dismissal. The compensation you are owed is likely to be very significant, so I strongly recommend that you contact me at jon.pinkus@stlawyers.ca as soon as possible.
