I got demoted after taking a short vacation. What can I do? GlobeBusiness
Daniel Lublin, partner, Whitten & Lublin Employment & Labour Lawyers, Toronto:
However, different terms or workplace conditions, even substandard ones, will not automatically justify an employee’s decision to resign and sue. The changes must be objectively clear and not perceived, they must be fundamental changes that affect the root of the employment relationship, and the changes must be such that remaining at work under the new terms is an unreasonable request.
Employers may be justified in demoting an employee if the employee is demonstrably unfit for the position they hold. To justify the demotion, the employer must properly communicate reasonable expectations to the employee, necessary for the position, and that the employee failed to meet those expectations, despite being provided with sufficient support and training.
