HOW DO YOU KNOW IF IT IS CONSTRUCTIVE DISMISSAL ?

 

 

Constructive dismissal occurs where the employer demonstrates an intention to no longer be bound to the employment contract.

 

Since the employee has not been formally dismissed by the employer, the employer’s act is referred to as “constructive dismissal”. This most commonly happens when an employer unilaterally reduces an employee’s pay or benefits or reassigns work duties to such an extent that the essential nature of the employee’s position is altered.

 

The enclosed presentation will provide an overview of when constructive dismissal arises, what remedies are available to an employee who has been constructively dismissed, and what an employer can do to reduce liability in these situations. Examples of specific employer behavior that may amount to constructive dismissal will also be highlighted.
