1:35 Manager Loses Duties in Restructuring
An employee worked in a senior managerial role for over 10 years. His employer decided to initiate a restructuring. The employee wasn't terminated, and actually maintained his job title and level of compensation, however he was stripped of his duties and no longer had staff reporting to him. Can an employer keep you in the same job but drastically change your duties? This is a constructive dismissal, says Lior Samfiru.
4:44 Older Employee Wrongfully Dismissed
A friend of ours is 60 years old, and worked 32 years at the same company earning $45,000 per year. She was let go, and given 8 months of severance pay. Did she agree to a bad offer? Lior Samfiru explains the definition of a Wrongful Dismissal, and severance pay for older employees.
7:21 Fired For Multiple Absences
A relative worked at a company for 11 years. He was fired for cause due to multiple absences. His employer said that the 'just cause dismissal' means they didn't have to pay him severance. Is that right? Lior Samfiru explains severance and for cause dismissals.

When my Canadian employer was bought by a European owner, we had to sign new employment contracts. The company is now being bought by an Asian owner. Will I have to sign a new employment contract?

24:00 Severance Package Deadlines
Are severance packages allowed to have waivers or deadlines attached to them? I have to sign something by tomorrow. They're offering me one year of pay after 36 years on the job. Lior Samfiru on why severance deadlines are meaningless.
26:56 Are Sales Staff Independent Contractors?
I have worked for a company for 4 years in a sales position. I was just let go. They consider me to be an Independent Contractor. I worked exclusively for them full time, but did not have an office and paid my own expenses. Am I entitled to severance pay?

I signed an offer letter for one amount (hourly) putting in over 50+ hrs weekly, a month later, in a meeting with my RDO n CFO, my executive asked if my position is hourly or salary which made my RDO change my rate of pay to salary. I was bothered that my ED did that in front of everyone but what can i do? I'm still there and it's gotten worse.

I would like everyone's advice on this. I work as cashier for b&m stores. I was badly verbally abused by my manger and ill treated. I know my challenge 25 and when a customer turns up at my till with no id and underage... I refused the sale as they were underage... I did nothing wrong...but my supervisor went and told my manger ive had a serious incident...and to my horror my manager pulled me aside and began shouting at me....he was not listening to me :-( in done this abruse before on my first few weeks at work where the area manager arranged a meeting... and my manger then apologised. Coming to here and now, I reported the incident to HR and sent my witness statement too alongside the mangers ill treatment to me and other staff too. He also called his hard working staff retards this hurts me so much as the staff work very hard.... and are not retards:-( I have been waiting for HR to contact me and resolved my issue.. instead my letter was passed down to a team leader and no mangers.... this team woman calls me and tried to put words into my mouth to my horror and said i gave in my notice in and told my manger I'm leaving the b&m store. I never gave any written statement or verbally. In my 9 letter page plus and statement I not once wrote about my termination of my contract or mentioned it at all...instead been pleading with them to resolve my issue as the manager has a bad behaviour and reeks of heavy alcohol at work. I have tried to find the directors details to email all letters and the email dialogue from HR today to tell them what's HR has done and my store mangers... I feel betrayed HRhave covered it up consideringi also sent a witness satement too... I am 55 year old and never had an experience such as this its left me mortified. I am very genuine and a lightworker... I heal people and gifted from birth i see people setiny on their their as well as voice writings.... and to experience evil people is a eye opener. Beautiful souls who reads this please give me advice what further I can do. B&M HR have terminated my contractwithout my consent and no reason as to why and have listened to the lies of a branch manager with jeckle and hyde traits...taking into note I did nothing wrong... its was a no id no sale... I couldn't tell acholol to underage but got punished instead of being praised for not selling to underage. He's shouts at you infront of everyone...its very humiliating. He has behaviour problems... I have won star certificate twice and to be treated this way is mortifying:-*((
