i was working one year and half for a company that is unionized. i was just let go for my availability without no notices i just was given a letter of termination. when i filed a grievance my job was so quick to offer me my job back and cover this up. what should i do i filed a complaint to head office?

I might loose my job on Monday. I had a bad month, became very depressed, began medication and then also started drinking on the job.....so unlike me.

I was told that my employment was terminated without cause. Is this wrongful dismissal?

I recently returned to full time work after being off on a short term disability. My manager has changed my job so I no longer have a direct report, I no longer report on a dotted line to a division Vice President, and now to a Marketing Director. My work space was changed from being at a window for senior employees to away from the windows. I feel as though this was not the job I was hired to do. I am doing only project management work, and I was hired to manage a project person while I worked on strategic issues with our senior leaders. Does this qualify as constructive dismissal. My employment contract is not detailed at all. It does not state that I will manage others. It does say that I will report to a division VP.

I was recently terminated without any cause or warning after 9 months on the job. I was called into the office under false pretences, and subsequently let go. I have no emails or any documentation that my job was in danger, I recently had a performance review and no indication was given that my job was in danger.. Is there anything I can do?
