Add Comment Question: whats definition of constructive dismissal and wrongful dismissal? And whats the relationship between constructive dismissal and wrongful dismissal? Answer: A constructive dismissal happens when the employer changes an employee's terms of employment in a significant way (for example, pay reduction, change in hours, etc). This allows the employee to resign and still gets severance. A wrongful dismissal happens when the employer lets the employee go without enough severance. So for example, if an employee that is owed 12 months severance is only paid 6 months severance, that employee has been wrongfully dismissed. To find out how much severance you owe an employee, you can call me or go to the Severance Calculator: www.severancepaycalculator.com . I am happy to discuss this with you further.
