Job cuts are a growing reality. In the past month, Amazon, Canada Post, Stellantis, General Motors, and Imperial Oil have been among the companies that have let plenty of employees go. Getting fired can come as a shock. And it can leave people financially strapped as they try to find their bearings. So what do you do if you suddenly find yourself in this situation?
We hear from a Toronto-based tech worker about what she learned from being let go earlier this year. Then, Rob speaks with Nicole Biros-Bolton, a human rights and employment lawyer at Bird Bolt Law in Hamilton, Ontario, about your rights after your employment is terminated, how severance is calculated and how to navigate the process of applying for employment insurance.
