i have an employee working for 5 years, last year, he wasn't performing, lots of lateness, smoking in office, ..etc. several verbal notices & nothing is changing. we changed our shifts structure and he refused the new shift arrangements so he doesn't show up to work & he went applied for EI. we got a letter from ministry to fill in reason for dismissal & also asked us about ROE (which we didn't complete). what is the best way to handle this situation (provided that this person already went and start working for another company). we paid him till last day of work.

I encourage you to call the number below to set up a consultation with a lawyer at our firm. The code that explains the reason for the dismissal may trigger the company's obligation to pay this former employee some form of termination/severance pay. We need more facts from you in order to make a recommendation that minimizes the company's liability. Lumi Pungea
