After 2 years with my company, I was dismissed due to an unfounded reason (actions unbecoming of a senior person). I was dismissed by the new manager. My reviews for the past two years were above over and even exceeded expectations. I was depressed and did qualify for a long term disability till 2015. I turned 65 in 2015 and my benefits ceased. I was asked by my employer to avail myself of the retirement benefits available to me. I am still disabled. I have availed myself of the retirement benefits from said company. Essentially I was terminated without cause at all. Do I have a recourse for terminating me in 2006 which caused my disability and since our group benefits maxed out when I turned 65, was I forced retired when I accepted their retirement benefits? Rather unorganized thoughts, in essence I was terminated which caused my disability and when I reached age 65 I was asked to retire.

I have worked for a company for just nearly five years. A couple weeks under 5 years. I was given a "one month notice" But it was actually written and communicated to me 27 days before my final termination date. And no real reason was given other than it is a "business move". I was only offered my regular pay up until that date, and my vacation day payout on Dec 4th my last payment date. I was wondering if I could be entitled to anything more than that? Thanks!

In my 25 years working for the same company I have averaged 10,000 dollars a year in overtime. My question is would this be a factor in my severance?

What are my rights after age 65 with regards to wrongful dismissal?

how much severance can a person get after working in a unionized store for 9 years. I was on depression medication because the store manager was bullying me because I had a hernia
