Add Comment Question: Yesterday I got served a warning letter by my employer. I was delayed due to a minor accident. I have my been working in this job for nearly 10 years. What is your best advise apart from doing my best not to be late again. Can my employer dismiss me on another reason. Will I be eligible for severance if I get dismissed which I suspect is going to happen because lately I had to train another person to do my job. Answer: Your employer can terminate your employment for any reason as long as it is not discriminatory and they provide you with termination pay. However, the warning letters may be a pretext to setting up a for cause dismissal, which may disentitle you from termination pay.
