After two years at my company, I was put on medical leave due to work stress. I was just approved for disability coverage through my insurance, but the same day I got the email from the insurance company, I received a termination letter from my employer. What are my rights?
Thanks for writing to us. From what you have provided you have been wrongfully dismissed and you are owed severance. To get a sense of what you are owed, I would encourage you to visit the severance pay calculator our firm has developed (www.SeverancePayCalculator.com). In addition to severance, you may be entitled to significant human rights damages given the fact you were ill at the time of dismissal. Please call us directly to book a consultation with one of our employment lawyers who will fully review your options with you.
