An employer is writing up an employee for an action that was committed 5 months ago. Its actually a minor offence several colleagues have committed before. Can the employer do so, when recounting the events are foggy as its a 5 month old example, justified? Its also written such a way that any minor flaw continuing forward, it will result in termination.

The employer is allowed to run its business however it sees fit but it owes you notice or pay in lieu of notice if it decides to let you go. Old incidents that are not documented properly are not sufficient to take away your termination entitlements. If you lose your job do not hesitate to contact us for legal advice.
