Wrongful Dismissal

Wrongful Dismissal

Losing a job is always challenging, but when a termination is unfair or without proper notice, it may be considered wrongful dismissal. Employees have the right to fair treatment, including reasonable notice or compensation, when their employment ends.

Understanding Wrongful Dismissal

Wrongful dismissal occurs when an employer terminates an employee without providing:

  • Proper Notice: The amount of notice required depends on the length of employment, age, position, and other factors.
  • Severance Pay: Compensation is owed if adequate notice is not given.

Employers are also prohibited from firing employees for discriminatory reasons or in retaliation for asserting legal rights, such as filing a harassment complaint.

Signs of a Wrongful Dismissal​

You may have experienced wrongful dismissal if:

  • You were terminated without sufficient notice or compensation.
  • You were fired due to discrimination, harassment, or retaliation.
  • Your termination violated the terms of your employment contract.
