I was placed on temporary layoff and recieved a call notifying me of termination without cause. I am 3 months away from 5 years service , am i entitled to severance pay, termination pay or both?

You may have significant entitlements - please use our severance calculator. At a minimum you are entitled to 4 weeks of termination pay. You are not entitled to statutory severance pay, BUT you are more than likely entitled to common law severance (see my attached blog article: https://stlawyers.ca/severance-word-many-meanings/). Please give us a call at the number below set-up a free consultation to discuss your matter. We'd be pleased to assist you.
