I'm a senior manager with a large global organization. Over the past 2 1/2 years, my job has disappeared twice and I've been offered an equivalent position. The latest position includes some duties that I am not skilled for, have physical limitations providing and a workload that is beyone extreme. For most of last year, I did not have the staff I required and now I've been given a poor performance review and a reduction in my bonus for last year. Can this be considered constructive dismissal?
Based on what you have described it does not appear to be a constructive dismissal. In any event, in light of the fact that you took on this new position you are deemed to have accepted it. If you cannot physically do the job, provide the company with a doctor's note which outlines that you cannot do it and what accommodation you need. If the company doesn't do anything about it, you may then have a constructive dismissal.
