Add Comment Question: I was terminated for just cause on Feb. 13, 2015 and my medical benefits stopped immediately. I get $177 in pills per week. Last summer I had a strained back & was off on STD for a short time. The Corporation of the County of Essex did not believe my Dr. or Physiotherapists reports had me followed & sent me to their independent therapist & made me go back to work after a 2 week suspension. In Oct. they became aware of my confussion, memory loss and sever vertigo from a head injury from a motorcycle accident from Sept. 14, 2011. ( still in the Discovery Stage ) I was given a letter stating that I was a risk to the corporation as a snow plow & tandem truck driver for them of 29 years. I am on pain medication for a pinched nerve in my left arm & shoulder so the employer put me on STD. I have been followed & seen cleaning my 92 year old father-in-laws driveway with a lawn mower & blade which they say is a misrepresentation of my abilities even though I was on pain meds at the time. I tried to go in for modified work doing inventory but looking up & down at the numbers made my vertigo unbearable. ( they say that is false representation of my ability) So they have fired me for just cause. The Teamster Union has filed a grievance & say it will have to go to arbitration. Is there anything I should be doing? Answer: If you are a member of a union then, unfortunately, only the union can represent you in any matter with your employer.
