Ask your question and an employment lawyer in Ontario, BC or Alberta will answer in minutes
I have been at this company for 7 months and was recently promoted to a higher position. I have a unique situation where I had two family emergencies back to back on the same day. I had let my employers know about my situation prior to them happening, and letting them know that it is not something I could control, but I will definitely do my best to accommodate if need be. They let me know that it is ok to have family emergencies, but when I couldn't go in, they reacted as if I was lying, and it was "coincidental" it happened two weekends in a row. My question is, what steps or advice could you give me if they try to fire me, or push me to quit because of my situation.
In order to properly advise you regarding the potential termination of your employment or in a situation where you are "forced" to quit we would require significantly more information regarding the circumstances of your employment and the family emergencies. I would strongly encourage you to call us and set up a consultation with one of our employment lawyers who will be able to fully review the circumstances of your matter and advise you.
