I quit my job because my coworker made my life miserable and the management Knew about it and ignored my concerns for almost 3months before I gave up and quite

I was the number one girl for management, staff, family members and my residents since 22001, union rep, union chief, heath and safety, labor management, behavioral specialist and many more responcibilities that I gladly took on over the years at this long term facility, most important a fair mediator for management staff and residents rights. I lived by the human rights code of ethics and our union contract. in 2007 our home employed a new administrator, our home was never the same, this administrator used me as her number one staff member until I continuously refused to sweep abuse cases, bullying, harrasment and ongoing drug use and theft of narcotics in our staffing departments. I quit the union to be able to expose the bad staff and help the weak staff, I was warned many times by this administrator to mind my own business she would deal with complaints, nothing was ever followed up on or reported as this would decrease our funding, finally an abuse case went to far and I wrote it up as now it would have to be reported to police and the ministry. 10 minutes later I was pulled into the boardroom on false accusations and suspended pending investigation, no rep ever to this day has filed a grievance , I was refused unemployment as she stated I was fired, any staff that kept in contact with me were given a choice of their job or staying in contact with me. any of my regular staff team mates were bullied out of the building. I have lost everything including my home . prior to her arrival our facility was a happy, harmonious place to work. Now that building is controlled by bully union reps and corrupt management. I need my life back do I have a case? because I have a story and much much evidence.

I was hired May 12 2015, I was fired August 12 2015. He told me I didn't make it past my 90 day probation period, he didnt give me a reason just told me I didn't make it past my 90 days. If you do the math, May 12 to Aug 12 is three months, but it isnt 90 days! Its actually 93 days. What is my next step? Getting a lawyer? Going to the Labor Board?

a company I worked for heard that I had hepititus C, and although it is not transferrable in the type of work place I worked in, and posed no threat to my job competence, after a severe reaction to latex, they dismissed me. No termination letter, or reason. Only an ROE in the mail, stating I had quit my position and was not returning. How can I best handle this claim/situation of discrimination?

Worked for s company for 13 years went on sick leave for surgery in April was off for 8 weeks prior to going on sick leave was given a warning email nothing on official letter head. In 13 years never been given a warning, was told needed to improve by July 31st. How can that be possible if I was on sick leave for 8 weeks. On my return was changed to a new position and division now 12 weeks after my return was told that it is a restructuring and the position was eliminated. Was given 8 months pay. Is this all that they did legit?
