Ask your question and an employment lawyer in Ontario, BC or Alberta will answer in minutes
Hi there,
I applied for an internal position and was brought into a meeting and told the employer was refusing to accept my application and recommended I resign. Reasons stated:
- I was hired as a manager and cannot apply for a regular position although fully qualified
- the staff are unionized so I can’t apply for it from a management position
It was again recommended that I resign and apply as man external candidate.
They have been trying to get me to quit or get fired for over a year. The employer has taken away benefits that were negotiated in my employment contract and refusing to accommodate for my family responsibilities. The employer headhunted me years ago and enticed me over with the negotiated benefits and now I am at risk of losing everything.
Thoughts?
