I have been watching your Employment hour in 30 as i am going through something at work.
We were bought by a large retirement home chain just over a year ago. The transition has been horrible and there was little to no onboarding / training for managers. I am a Director of Health and Wellness and maintained this position. There was many promises made by this company and not delivered. I was under a lot of stress due to no onboarding and there was an another manager who i have to work with very closely. It created a very hostile work environment due to what i feel was harassment, innapropriate behaviours, bullying , (psychological ,emotional). This was brought to my manager and i also relayed my struggles i was having and the lack of
. At the time of the aquisition, they had no clinical educator and were using other regional managers within the company who i feel has no qualifications to provide appropriate onboarding.
The company has admitted the transition was done poorly.
This week they brought me into the office and offered me a transfer to another facility close by or resign.
They acknowledged i was struggling and felt a smaller facility would be better for me as It was stable and already established. They declined my request for proprer
I feel I am being pushed out of my position and treated unfairly.
What are my options or rights?
