Hired in September 2015 on understanding 3 shifts/per week 3.5 break 3.5/day. Worked full time after @ 1.5 months. Was notified I needed to file criminal background check. And was not eligible to return until done. This happened about 10 days ago. Only paid for days worked in cycle. Am am I entitled to the wages I would have made, and I have as yet to be officially terminated.

Based on what you have described, yes, you would be entitled to the wages that you would have made. If you are not called back soon, you should give us a call at the number below, as you may have actually been constructively dismissed, which would entitle you to severance.

If your employment is officially terminated, I would strongly advise you to visit our Ontario Free Severance Pay Calculator at http://www.severancepaycalculator.com/. Even employees who have only been working for a short period of time can often be entitled to significant compensation (in fact, employees who have worked for only a few months are often entitled to a disproportionately significant amount of severance).

If you have been paid less than what is showing on the calculator, or your employer is refusing to return you to work, then please give us a call at the number below for a consultation.
