I have been working in a managerial position for a large company for 27 years. I am 68 years old and had all good intentions of working until I am 69 years old which means another year. I have just recently received a letter of final warning that unless I changed my aggressive attitude to staff and workers including contractors my position will be terminated. They have wrongly accused me of many occurrences and have brought up instances which are false and had occurred several years ago. Am I eligible to request that I get a settlement and leave the company a year earlier than I had planned. I cannot afford to just quit now and they are making my working environment very stressful and I feel that I am being pushed out gently that they really want me to quit.
Based on what you have described, it seems as if your employer is trying to mount a case to terminate your cause and thus not provide anything by way of severance or notice. However, we will want to get more particulars regarding your employment prior to providing advice on your entitlements which could be significant. I would strongly recommend that you contact our office for a consultation with one of our lawyers.
