I have worked for a transport company for four years. I travel to pick up parts for the mechanics. I also clean their shop and I also help in their payroll department. Today my boss approached me and told me that he was abolishing my job. I asked him if it was something that I had done and he insisted that it was not. Then he informed me that a co-worker would be doing the parts portion of my job and he would hire another woman to do the cleaning part. Two weeks prior to this, I asked him if my job was secure and he told me absolutely and that I had nothing to worry about. Is this a wrongful dismissal? Thank you

He has a right to let you go for any reason as long as he pays you proper severance. Depending on your age, you could easily be owed 6 months severance or more. Please call me to discuss this.
