Ask your question and an employment lawyer in Ontario, BC or Alberta will answer in minutes
Can I be fired with just cause and not receive severance pay for a job I've performed in Ontario Canada for the past 35 years?
Hi Jason,
Thank you for your question.
To answer your question in short, yes.
However, the test that an employer is required to meet before it can establish "just cause" is a very high one and only likely in the most extreme cases (especially those involving employees with 35 years of service).
If you have been terminated after 35 years for "cause" I would highly recommend you call our firm to book a free consultation. You may be entitled to upwards of 2 years of compensation or more.
