Overview:

Wrongful dismissal remains one of the most significant legal risks facing Canadian employers, and even a well intentioned termination can escalate into a costly claim. This webinar gives employers a clear, practical understanding of terminations in the context of Canadian workplace laws and the importance of understanding why a decisive plan can help shape outcomes.

Attendees will gain actionable strategies for navigating termination, managing severance negotiations, and responding effectively to potential wrongful dismissal allegations.
