WEEK THAT WAS #1: In order for a new employment contract for an existing employee to be valid, a signing bonus or other incentive must be provided

WEEK THAT WAS #2: Our 56-year-old client had 18 years of service when he was as fired without cause and provided 18 weeks of severance pay. David reveals what he is actually likely owed!

www.SeverancePayCalculator.com has been used by over 550,000 people to discover their full severance entitlements.

CALLER: I’m on stress leave from my job, triggered by the poor environment at work. I don’t want to go back to a poisoned work environment. What should I do? Is this a case of constructive dismissal?

MISCONCEPTIONS ABOUT SEVERANCE: You have to work at least 5 years to get severance - FALSE

MISCONCEPTIONS ABOUT SEVERANCE: When you are let go, you get a week or two for every year of service - FALSE

MISCONCEPTIONS ABOUT SEVERANCE: If you are fired, you don’t get severance - FALSE

CALLER: If a company relocates to another area, do they have to compensate you to make up for the increased distance? David explains how this could constitute constructive dismissal

MISCONCEPTIONS ABOUT SEVERANCE: Short service employees get very little severance - FALSE

CALLER: I was just terminated from my job. There is a 3 day deadline on the severance offer. Because I was a temporary worker who worked 3 back-to-back contracts, am I still owed severance?

CALLER: I may be put on a temporary layoff soon. I was temporarily laid off about a year ago after 10 years of employment. If they don’t bring me back, would I be owed severance?

Toronto Employment Lawyer David Vaughan, partner at Samfiru Tumarkin LLP, reveals your workplace rights in Toronto, the surrounding GTA and across Ontario.

David shatters myths and misconceptions about severance pay, terminations, workplace harassment, overtime pay, wrongful dismissal, constructive dismissal, duty to accommodate, and more.
