Can my employer force me to take a lower paying job in another department? Is that considered termination?
Thank you for reaching out to our firm.
Whether that amounts to a constructive dismissal (termination) depends on several factors, not least of which being how different the role is and how significant the reduction in pay is. That said, it is entirely possible that the changes that your employer is instituting will amount to a constructive dismissal. If that is the case, then you will be entitled to severance and it becomes a question of how much.
In order to determine if this has been a constructive dismissal and, if so, how much severance you would be entitled to, we will need more information from you. To that end, please phone the number below to schedule a consultation with one of our employment lawyers.
