Add Comment Question: My wife was released from her position written as "non-casual dismissal" with no reason for her firing. They offered her 12 weeks pay again without any reason, is this fair? Answer: Unfortunately, your employer can terminate you at any time, for any reason, as long as that reason is not discriminatory and as long as they provide you with the appropriate severance. I recommend reaching out to an employment lawyer at the number below in order to ensure that your wife does not have entitlements beyond the 12 weeks offered.
