Do they need a reason to let u go in the probation period

Thank you for writing to us. Yes, an employer does need a reason to dismiss a employee during the probationary period. Dismissing without proper reason amounts to a wrongful dismissal in which the employee would be owed severance. If you have been terminated during the probationary period I would encourage you to visit the severance pay calculator our firm has developed (www.SeverancePayCalculator.com). I would also encourage you to call us and book a consultation in order to explore your options with one of our employment lawyers.
