Firing or Termination FAQ (v.2022-1)

I think I need to terminate my employee. How do I check if my reason for termination is allowed?

First, you must be certain that you have grounds to terminate your employee. The law provides a list of grounds, and you can also check your contract for additional grounds to what the law provides. The law allows termination for 'just' or 'authorized' causes.

What are 'just' causes?

Just causes of termination refer to:

1. serious misconduct,
2. willful disobedience or insubordination,
3. gross and habitual neglect of duties,
4. fraud or willful breach of trust,
5. loss of confidence,
6. commission of a crime or offense,
7. analogous causes.
