Yes that is what happened to me all of a sudden that “you have too many complaints” and “I think I should should let you go” after years of performing without a word of complaint and without warnings and consultations and isn’t true that this issue will take years to resolve in court it’s a waste of time

Can a person be fired through a phone call also I received a letter on Nov 10 , just about a month later that was dated for oct 18 when I was fired. I have been asking why was I let go and they never did not identify why and what I was fired on. So I really needed answers. Also I signed a contract as well. No one has been giving me answers

I like your information , thanks for your help , I got a question, my employer is threatening me to get me fired for not working overtime even though I told them very clear I wasn’t able to do so, it is on my application when I got the job.20 years ago what can I expect?

[@SamfiruTumarkinToronto]

In Ontario and British Columbia, Canada, your employer cannot make you work overtime hours if they aren’t your regular hours of work. There are two exceptions to that rule: 1) Your employment agreement may allow your employer to require you to work more hours outside of your regular work day. The company is still required to pay you for those overtime hours at time and a half; and 2) There is a history of your employer asking you to work overtime and you agreeing to their request.

I was Demoted in Oct or Nov of 2019 for not fully Successful performance. Since then I have been mentor to make sure my performance is 100%. I am still being mentor and documented for my work which is low graded position only. Is this something that I can do regarding my situation how should this be handled 🤔 Please help 🙏

[@SamfiruTumarkinToronto]

For Canadian employees: Generally speaking, an employer CAN'T demote an employee without their permission. In fact, an employer can't make any significant changes to somebody's job (i.e. reduce their pay, change their hours, duties or position, put them on a layoff). Otherwise, it can be considered a termination, and the worker can leave with a severance package. We can help people in Ontario, British Columbia or Alberta get that full severance. Unfortunately, if an employer demotes an employee, and the employee doesn't protest (in writing) the change, and accepts the lower position for a long period of time (i.e. 2+ years), then they will be seen to have accepted the change, and can't argue termination. They may also have given their employer the right to make changes to their job again.
