0:00 - Intro

2:39 Severance for short-service employee
I was employed in a senior role for a few months but was let go and given 2 weeks of severance pay. Is this an adequate amount considering I was only employed for a short period?

7:35 New employment contract to sign
I worked as a truck driver for 11 years and was considered a contractor despite using company equipment. My employer recently issued a new contract for me to sign that makes me an employee but does not take into consideration my previous years of service.

10:50 Forced to retire
I’ve been on the receiving end of many comments from co-workers and a manager about my impending retirement. I have no plans to retire in the immediate future. Can I be forced out of my job?

14:15 What you need to know about “For Cause” Terminations
14:20 1️⃣A “for cause” termination is considered the capital punishment of employment law.
15:33 2️⃣ It is extremely difficult for an employer to legitimately fire someone for cause.
17:03 3️⃣ You should speak out against a bad performance review if you feel that it is incorrect.
18:17 4️⃣ You are likely still owed full severance pay if you are dismissed with cause.
19:38 5️⃣ You can and should have an employment lawyer review any termination papers before you sign them.

21:09 Refusal to accommodate injury
My husband injured his shoulder and had to take a month off work to recover and rehabilitate. His doctor eventually cleared him to return to work but with some accommodations, however, his employer refused to accommodate his needs.

24:51 No severance after sale of business
My son worked in a restaurant for 6 years and recently it was sold. The old owner assured everyone that the new owners would be in touch but nothing happened. He didn’t receive any severance.

26:51 Major reduction in shifts
We’ve recently hired new staff and my hours seem to have reduced dramatically as a result. While I previously worked 30 hours a week consistently, I now have to request more shifts. Do I have to accept this as I am a part-time employee?
