Ask your question about terminations, dismissals and lay offs and an employment lawyer in Ontario, BC or Alberta will answer in minutes
If and employee keeps taking time off for sick days, is that grounds for dismissal? She is never here!
If an employee is persistently unable to work due to medical issues or requires an extended absence, you can ask for a medical note substantiating this. If the employee is unable to provide this, it would constitute an unauthorized leave and may justify termination for cause. However, when dealing with a medical issue, it is important to proceed carefully, as it can give rise to human rights liability. Therefore, before making any decisions, I recommend that you contact our firm to discuss the matter in more detail and determine how we can assist you protect your legal rights.
