Ask your question and an employment lawyer in Ontario, BC or Alberta will answer in minutes
i have been an employee with my company for almost 2 years. i was terminated for a different reason then this question however i have had several complaint about 2 coworkers that were constantly harassing me at work and outside of work. i put in several complaints about them and nothing was done. they just dismissed the complaints and let them continue to harass me without dicipline.
when i was dismissed today on an unrelated questionable incident, I asked if it was due to an incident with a coworker and they replied yes.
is this ok? and should i take action against the company?
An employer cannot terminate you as a reprisal for complaints that you have made regarding harassment in the workplace. It sounds like further details would need to be discussed with an employment lawyer in order to definitively answer whether you should take action against the company, but it is certainly worth a further discussion.
