Add Comment Question: How much does your employer have to reduce your salary for it to be considered a constructive dismissal? Is there a rule of thumb that applies or is every situation different? Answer: Hi John, Thank you for your question. Generally speaking, it depends. However, I would argue that a drop of between 10-15% or more in overall remuneration would constitute constructive dismissal.
