The assets of my previous firm were bought by my present firm and a number of employees were invited to join the current firm. I was a Branch Manager in the previous firm and moved over as a Branch Manager in the current firm. I worked at the old firm for 14 years as a Manager and at the current firm for 3 years. Due to business conditions I was asked to relinquish my position as Manager . I was offer a constructive dismissal with a severance package and a position in sales. My question is what is the number of weeks or months I should get in severance for the 17 years I have been employed in the joint firms oer Ontario Law?
thanks
The answer depends on whether it was a true asset purchase and whether the new company recognized your years of service, either implicitly or explicitly. Please contact us at the number below for a consultation with a lawyer to discuss your situation.
