Add Comment Question: We are a non-unionized factory in the GTA. I've been with the company for 10 years as a full time hourly employee (8:00am-4:00pm Monday to friday). The new owners have decided to put the entire plant on a 12 hour rotating continental shift. My question is if this can be grounds for constructive dismissal as this causes a situation that makes it almost impossible to maintain my position due to other commitments and disruptions. Thank you Answer: If you have never worked this type of shift, and unless you have an employment contract which explicitly allows your employer to change your shifts, this is absolutely a basis for a constructive dismissal claim.
