My boyfriend is being laid off after working at a company for four years. He has not been given a reason for being laid off, but to him it's quite evident that the general manager of the company wants him to go because of discriminatory reasons. She is a white woman, who has a totalitarian style of managing, while my boyfriend is a middle eastern man. Since she cannot fire him because he hasn't done anything wrong, they've decided to lay him off. Because there isn't a valid reason for doing so, would this be considered wrongful dismissal? Not to mention, he wasn't given a written notice, but was just told verbally.
