i was hired at a work place for a position in my trade. it took me 7 months to acquire this job. after 4 months i was prompted to manager and during 10 tumultuous months. i did not receive any training or help to grow into my role. didn't have a job description. my director never said hello, good bye or spoke to me about position. there was lack of management, mentorship, experience for my role for inspiration and didn't lead by example. management didn't allow me to do what i was asked to do for my role, like hire people for my team or set standards up for a work environment to produce great work. i never felt like i fit in and constantly bullied.
after the holidays and my last days of vacation days, i was let go. is this considered wrongful dismissal because i was "acceptable" and a great worker before my promotion. i see it as i would still have a job post "manager" title.
they say, i didn' have communicate skills for my new role. but they really didn't help me either.
i'm 46 and if you factor my age
into all this. was i wrongfully dismissed?
There are various factors that need to be considered in determining whether someone has been wrongfully dismissed. Such factors include the terms of an employment contract (if one exists), the amount of notice of termination the employee was given, etc. Please contact our office and speak with one of our lawyers to go over your entitlements.
