Ask your question and an employment lawyer in Ontario, BC or Alberta will answer in minutes
I was injured in an auto accident and I had been told by my doctor to stay off work till I was better. I was off for for 3 months, my employer had told me to take as much time as I needed. When I was almost ready to go back to work I called my employer and he never answered multiple times, I end up getting 3 different record of employment from them, one stating they laid me off and the other 2 stating that I quit when I never quit my job or never gave them my 2 weeks notice, I was expecting my position to be waiting for me just like they had told me.
