in my contract is does state that I can be asked to trasnfer to a different loaction. How ever they are now asking me to drive 1.5 hours each way. My car is older and do not feel comfortable driving it that far. Basically I have been told accept this placement or loose my job. There are other employees with in the company that drive that say no and then they are fine but i am being forced to go

Thanks for your question. If you are being asked to double or triple your commute time and are being singled out and forced to change location for no apparent reason, then you likely do have some recourse against the company. Before you take any other steps, I would strongly encourage you to discuss your situation with one of our employment lawyers in Ottawa. They will clearly spell out what your options are and what your best course of action is. Give us a call at the number below to set up a confidential consultation. We would be happy to help in any way we can.
