I was charged with fraud charges from my ex eemployer and my current employer of 13 yyears which I worked at the same time wants me to take a leave of absence until I deal with the charges. Can they do this? I have bills and children to take care of and EI would not be sufficient means of income for me

Thank you for your question. An employer cannot force you to take a leave of absence, so you do not necessarily have to agree. I would encourage you to give us a call at the number below to discuss your situation in more detail. We would be happy to assist as best we can.
