I was terminated from my job yesterday. I was on probation for a 3 month period, which would have ended on Jan 27/15. The termination letter stated that the company felt that I wa snot suitable for continued employment based on my work performance. This was very surprising. Is this unlawful dismissal? Thank you, Jim.P.
Hi Jim. Thanks for your email. Unfortunately, an employer is within its rights to terminate during the probationary period for any reason it likes, so long as that reason is not discriminatory. Please contact Kari Jillings if the employer did not pay you any severance or termination pay.
