I was employed for over 6 months as a restaurant manager. Went on vacation and when I returned I was dismissed without cause. Was eventually given one weeks pay. I believe I was wrongfully dismissed, didn't even receive a reason. Is there any way I could go after them in court for wrongful dismissal or damage caused by this? It left me with nothing

They are allowed to let you go for any or no reason as long as they pay you adequate severance. One week is not sufficient unless you signed a term that limits you to the minimum statutory standards so I encourage you to contact us to have your case assessed by one of our lawyers.
