I was terminated without cause
After 14 years of working full time, they gave me a year pay . I didn't
Get any notice of termination and they didn't pay me for it. It's said in the letter that if I get another job my severance will be paid at50% lump sum. Is that fair to force someone not to look for another job or getting cut off?
An employer is permitted to include a 50% claw-back provision when offering a termination package, as long as doing so does not violate the Employment Standards Act, 2000. With that said, you should contact our firm to discuss the matter in more detail and determine if this was a fair severance package.
