I was dismissed for tardiness. I worked with the company for almost 4 years -- never was I given a contract ( I didn't sign anything ), I wasn't given an offer letter, was never given a set schedule. I injured myself on June 5th 2018 and got a warning for tardiness on July 5th which I did sign it. I got terminated on July 12th. Never was my schedule an issue prior to getting injured. There was also the issue of them not having modified duties for me, which caused a problem with WSIB. Do I have a case to sue them on?
