I was fired from my job less than 24hrs ago for "excessive tardiness" due to my own going battles with mental health problems. I kept my employers up to date on all doctors appointments and produces doctors notes for some of my absences. Do I have a case
Hi Alyssa,
Thank you for your question.
My name is Chris Justice and I am a lawyer with Samfiru Tumarkin LLP. In response to your question, if your employment has been terminated, it is likely that you are owed compensation. If your employer is offering you termination pay, it is also likely that you are owed greater compensation. Additionally, and in regards to your specific situation, if your employer has terminated your employment in part due to a disability or illness you may have, the employer is potentially exposed to further damages for bad faith/discriminatory treatment.
I highly recommend you give me a call at 416-216-5859. From there, we can gather more information from you and I can be in a better position to properly advise you as to your rights and entitlements.
Thanks Alyssa.
