Add Comment Question: I've been dismissed from a new to me position. Their reason was that I failed to remain at the scene of an accident. this accident was with an eavestrough that had a slight dent. I took pics and reported it to employer immediately. I wasn't spoken to or updated about any concerns. Then a few weeks later, I asked a customer to spot me as I backed up(at their request) closer to their shed. When I looked up I seen that there were previous scratches, dings and is why I asked customer to spot me reversing. I stopped immediately when directed to. I seen that I was resting against shed roof. no visible damage done, no conversation exchanged between me and customer nor between me and supervisor. Therefore, I didn't report this incident. at the end of the day, supervisor dismissed me as I never reported incident and claims that I failed to remain at scene of accident. Answer: Ultimately, an employer can dismiss you for any reason, as long as they pay the proper amount of severance. If that's not the case, give us a call for a free consultation.
