ON THIS EPISODE

Chapter 1:

Can I be fired for cause if I push a coworker?

An employee pushed a coworker in the workplace. He was terminated for cause in a meeting following the incident. Is he still owed severance pay? David explains the employee’s rights in this case.

Chapter 2:

Part-time Employee Harassed by Boss

My wife works part-time with senior citizens. She often works more hours than she originally agreed to. She ended up being verbally harassed by her boss today. What should her next step? Should she talk to HR?

Chapter 3:

When Employer Ends “Work From Home” Arrangement

David’s client worked from home for the past 9 years. Her employer announced that all employees would need to work directly in the office. David explains why this constitutes Constructive Dismissal.

Chapter 4:

Employment Lawyer & Severance Package Negotiations

I was terminated without cause last year and given a severance package that contained the ESA minimum amount. I hired a lawyer who unsuccessfully tried to negotiate a better severance package. She failed and has told me to simply accept the package. Should I get a new lawyer?

Chapter 5:

Let Go For Cause & Lawyer Filed for “Discovery”

I was let go for cause after the employer said I did something wrong at work. I have retained a lawyer, and they have just filed for discovery. What can I expect from this process?

Chapter 6:

New Owners & Change in Responsibilities (Constructive Dismissal)

I worked at a family-run company as a Sales Manager for the last 30 years. 2 years ago they were bought by a larger company, and shed some sales staff, which means I’ve had to take on more work. Can I leave and get severance pay?

Chapter 7:

Severance Pay When Poached by Another Company

I’ve worked at an accounting firm for over 20 years now. A friend has asked me to join his new startup company and is guaranteeing me 2 years of work. If I am let go from his company after the 2 years, would I be owed severance pay for service at both companies?

Chapter 8:

Working Notice & Change to Terms of Employment

If an employer provides 6 months’ notice for a major change to an employees terms of employment (change in job duties, work location, etc.), how does that impact their ability to argue a constructive dismissal?

Chapter 9:

Policy Breach & Termination For Cause

My friend was terminated for cause after breaking some company policies. Is she owed any severance pay?
