🔹 WEEK THAT WAS: Compensation changed due to COVID-19 - 2:15
I'm a salesperson and my compensation was always salary plus commission. Recently my employer told me because of COVID-19 my compensation would be commission only. Can they do this?

📞 CALL: Severance after 15 years and a company shutdown - 6:34
A caller from https://stlawyers.ca/employment-law-s... The bank branch that I manage is going to be shut down permanently amid the pandemic, and I will be out of a job. They expect me to keep working until the closing date and will give me severance a month after that. How much severance should I get after 15 years with the bank?

❓ Fired due to lingering COVID-19 symptoms - 11:05
https://www.terminationquestions.com: I caught COVID-19 two months ago and was unable to get out of bed for weeks. My doctor says I’m still not well enough to go back to work. My insurance provider denied my LTD claim because they say I don’t have enough evidence to prove that I’m still suffering. Now my boss is growing impatient and wants me back immediately. Can they fire me with 2 weeks’ pay over this, even after 18 good years with the company?

📞 CALL: Severance based on salary alone - 22:45
A caller from https://stlawyers.ca/employment-law-s... I was let go from a sales job that paid a salary plus a 15% commission. They told me that my severance package is only based on my salary because they are no longer providing commission to their employees. Can they do that?

📞 CALL: On LTD while the company is being shut down - 25:45
A caller from https://stlawyers.ca/employment-law-s... The plant I work at is shutting down. Does the fact that I’m on long-term disability right now impact my right to severance pay? I’ve been with the company for 33 years.
