My wife has worked for a pharmacist for 5 years as assistant in dispensing drugs. She was never certified but worked under his supervision. Last week the wife of the pharmacist maliciously accused her of flirting with her husband and wants her gone. They are offering her to work 2 more weeks & then be done. All accusations are by text. there has never been any performance issues.
Is the employer going to pay her anything at the end of the two week working notice? If not then the employer is in breach of the Employment Standards Act for failing to provide the bare minimum notice required. Your wife would most likely be entitled to additional notice under the common law as well. Please have your wife contact our office and speak with one of our lawyers to go over everything and advise her of her rights and entitlements which may be significant.
