I’ve been in a company for 19 years and in temporary laid off because of shortage of work and didnt get any package from the company,. Can i go after them to get something?
If this is the first time you have ever been temporary laid off, and assuming you do not have a contract of employment which explicitly gives the company the right to temporarily lay you off, then you do not have to accept the lay off and can claim constructive dismissal, entitling you to a severance package.
