I was terminated for safey infractions. My employer has a demerit system setup. 10 points is the max you can have before terminated. I dropped a skid as a forklift operator and was given 3 points for that infraction. I was retrained and given the ok to go back to work. A couple weeks later for no cause I was terminated. This loss is devastating to my finances I was not given severance as my employer said they had cause. What are my legal options?
Without knowing more about your situation, it is hard to say if the company had cause. What I can tell you is that it is extremely difficult for an employer to establish cause and I doubt the employer can do so in your case. If there is no cause, then you are entitled to severance based on the length of your employment, your age and position. Please give me a call so that I can properly assess your entitlements.
