My company policy was to give three written wearing and then termination two written warning were given and I signed but third wasn't given instead I was told I will be getting one and then without getting anything signed or given I was fired. Is that right?
Hi Ada,
Thank you for your question.
From what you are saying, it sounds the company did not follow its own policy. However, it depends on what you were being warned for. Some forms of conduct (e.g. theft, assault) do not require a series of warnings and would allow a company to terminate without providing any notice/pay in lieu of notice.
Other forms of conduct may be enough to act as a reason for termination, but still obligate the employer to provide you with some form of severance.
In your case, I would recommend you contact our firm to schedule a consultation. From there we will be able to gather more information and be in a better position to fully advise you as to your rights and entitlements.
