0:00 - Intro

1:36 Coworker Harassment Outside Workplace
Lior talks about a case where a woman was harassed by one of her co-workers outside of the office. Her employer said that they couldn’t do anything about it because it didn’t happen in the office. Is the employer allowed to ignore incidents between co-workers outside the workplace?

4:51 When Consultant is an Employee
I’ve been working at a company for 7 years as a consultant. However, I am being treated like an employee. I clock in and out, take a lunch break, and was provided the employee handbook. How long can a company do this for?

8:16 Fired for Facebook Comment
I posted a comment on Facebook, mentioning I was having a bad week at work. Nothing about where I work. I have no affiliation to my employer on Facebook. My boss later asked me about that comment, then fired me on the spot. I’m pretty sure this is a wrongful dismissal and I should get my job back.

11:02 Top 10 Commandments of Termination of Employment (Pt. 1)
11:15 1️⃣ Thou shall think about termination when accepting a new job
12:42 2️⃣ Thou shall not accept a temporary layoff
14:25 3️⃣ Thou shall respond to any negative reviews or discipline

18:00 Severance Pay Calculator
Lior talks about the Severance Pay Calculator and why you should use it to help see how much severance you are owed.

19:19 Let Go Despite Employer Hiring More People
I was recently let go from a software business after 10 years. I was told it was due to a lack of sales even though the company just hired three new employees. I have a clean work record and took a 15% pay cut to help the team. Can they legally do this and what severance am I owed?

20:58 Rights as a Construction Worker
The owner of the construction company I work for is retiring. When our current projects are done, that’s likely it for our employment. I know there are special rules for the construction industry in the Employment Standards Act, but are we entitled to anything?
21:40 Is your employer closing or retiring? The end of your employment is treated as being terminated and severance pay is owed.
