Add Comment Question: I recently laid off an employee who was with us for one year and 2 weeks (total, as a full time supervisor of marketing, she did not supervise people). She is now suing the company for wrongful dismissal. During her one year of employment our sales were down over 300k and we lost a 2 million dollar account that she did the administration/clerical/customer service work for (i laid her off when i was told confidentially that we had lost the account). We are a small company and with the loss in sales layoff's were necessary. Answer: Thank you for contacting us. This, obviously has to be dealt with. In light of how you describe her performance, you may well have had cause to let her go. This would mean that she is not owed any compensation. I want to see the document that you received from her or her lawyer. Let me review it and we can then discuss it. No charge. I look forward to hearing from you.
