My employer fired me Because i disnt showed up in training classes due to sickness

Thank you for your question. My name is Jon Pinkus and I am an employment lawyer at Samfiru Tumarkin LLP.

Non-culpable absences are not just cause for dismissal. Therefore, your employer will have to pay you severance in accordance with your entitlements for a without cause dismissal. This amount could be significant. In addition, this could be a human rights violation raising additional damages that you are owed.

I would strongly recommend that you contact us at the number below or email me at jon.pinkus@stlawyers.ca. Helpful information for us to know would be your age, length of service, and compensation.
