Add Comment Question: I have in my current position as a remote employee for 10 years. The role is transitioning to another country which will make it no longer exist. I have been offered another position but I am to perform the job in the office for 5 days per work for 1 year. If I do not accept a the job, I am to resign. I will not be offered severance. The new job is deemed equivalent to my current job by the company. Working in an office setting and commuting may cause stress on me. What are my legal rights? Answer: You are not required to accept a fundamental change to your employment. Given the information you have provided you would be able to consider your employment constructively dismissed and you are owed severance. I would strongly encourage you to visit the severance pay calculator our firm has developed to see what you are owed (www.SeverancePayCalculator.com). I would also encourage you to call us and set up a free and confidential consultation with one of our employment lawyers.
