Hello, I was recently terminated due to restructuring from my part time position at a small business where I was employed for just over 3 years. However, I am almost certain it was because my employer no longer liked me and had already found my replacement. I have been subjected to regular abuse from him for the past 6 months and he did this to two other employees before and they eventually quit. I hung on and got let go. He made my life miserable. I would like to know if you would be able to review my termination letter and advise if I am eligble for a common law settlement and what I can do regarding the abuse he subjected me to.I have not signed my release or termination letter.
