My father in law (a Polish born Canadian citizen) worked for a group of companies for 20 + years The majority of the work was for one of the 3 companies (19 years) from which he was laid off. He was then hired back to another company owned by the same ownership. They then proceeded to reduce hours and make it difficult to continue to work with them and then forced him to quit so he could move on and support he family. The companies all run under different names and CRA numbers, so I informed him that they owe him a minimum of 8 weeks termination from the one long standing business. I do not believe they have the yearly sales to get severace as well because they split their revenue between all their businesses. I filled a claim this week with the Ministry of labour and received an email back threatening to send the authorities to his home to recover some materials that were given to my father in law. They are proceeding like he has stolen them. They have also engaged Wakefield Fillion. We have no proof that these items were gifted but there was also no purchase agreement. What do we do? I wrote this on my father in laws behalf due to Polish being his mother tongue.
