Our company is going through some tough times financially. I am an exempt (non-union) salary employee of 34 years. I am hearing rumours that the company is about to unilaterally cut exempt employee wages by 20%. Can the company do this or is this considered constructive dismissal?

This would be a constructive dismissal. Given your 34 years of service, you would be entitled to a significant amount of severance. Please call us right away so that we can properly advise you on what steps to take should the Company make this decision.
