I was recently let go at work.On my ROE its marked M for dismissal. When I asked why I was being terminated I wasnt realy given an answer. And now they have started training another person for the job I was doing. I worked there for one year ten months. Shouldn't I have been given a rean ?

Thank you for your question. My name is Jon Pinkus and I am an employment lawyer with Samfiru Tumarkin LLP.

What you have described sounds like a wrongful dismissal but it will all depend on how much you have been offered as severance. Any employer can terminate your employment (without giving a reason) but only if they pay you your proper severance.

If you'd like to find out if what you have been offered is fair, please email me at jon.pinkus@stlawyers.ca with your age, position, level of compensation, and a copy of any employment offer or contract you signed during your employment. Then I will be able to give you an accurate assessment of your entitlements and tell you how we can help.
