I was terminated after 9 years 9 months of employment after I was put on a performance improvement plan after complaining of bullying from a managers relative. Before the plan I had no previous discipline of any sort. During the performance plan, the employer falsified my performance (ie no documentation of my factually doing anything wrong). The treatment on the program amounted to harassment to the point where I was injured. I did not want to tell the actual reason for my injury at a WSIB meeting ( in fear of losing my job). After the injury my leader was setting me up for a similar situation that lead to my injury, so I told the leader that this was the case. ( as I was also asking not to be put in the situation) one week following the omission I was terminated, and my claims never investigated. I did ask the employer to perform a harassment investigation during this time also, which they did, but I had no procedural fairness. Ie. was not allowed to respond to respondents facts, 3 of my 4 witnesses were not interviewed, leader and coordinators statements taken as fact (no supporting evidence). The employer did not follow procedures or policies for progressive discipline, performance plan, harassment complaints, harassment investigation, hearing workplace complaints. Does this sound legal?. I was terminated"without cause"
