I was terminated from my job for absenteeism to which I acknowledged that I had a drinking problem but was still terminated

It is possible that your employer's decision to terminate your employment as a result of absenteeism and when it was aware that you suffered from alcoholism constitutes a wrongful dismissal such that you would be entitled to a severance package and damages under the Ontario Human Rights Code. Please contact our firm to determine whether we can assist you.
