Add Comment Question: I was let go today because I've been missing work due to terrible morning sickness, being pregnant. my employer asked me to come in to talk with her today. She let me go with the phrase "it's just not suitable". Where then I replied with the fact that I was considering terminating my pregnancy in the next week coming and that me missing work will no longer be an issue because in most cases, morning sickness is one of the first pregnancy symptoms to disappear. Within 24 hours actually. I had an appointment booked already, and asked for those days off from work for it. But the abortion clinic had an open availability yesterday. I was able you make my appointment and called in sick today to recover. Is it still wrongful dismissal? Firing me for missing work for either having morning sickness or recovering from this procedure? She didn't mention anything about my work ethic previously or during out meeting today where she fired me. Answer: Yes, this is a wrongful dismissal and possible violation of your rights under applicable human rights legislation. Therefore, you should receive termination pay.
