Fired after returning from wsib

Generally an employer has the ability to terminate you at any time, without even having to provide a reason why, as long as you are paid your proper severance entitlements. I have copied for you below a link to our severance pay calculator, which can provide you with an estimate of your severance entitlements. However, the timing of your termination in relation to your return from WSIB/a medical leave is suspicious. If it can be shown that being on a medical leave or going on WSIB was a motivating factor in the company's decision to terminate you, this could warrant additional damages against the Company.

I highly recommend you contact our office to speak with one of our employment lawyers so we can better assess your situation and associated entitlements.
