When we talk about seniority in wrongful dismissal cases most people think about the last continuous period of employment. People are entitled to reasonable notice based on, in part, how many years they work for the company. Things get a little complicated, however, when employees work for an employer, quit for a while, then go back.

The vast majority of wrongful dismissal cases are settled between the employer=s and employee=s lawyers long before a Statement of Claim is issued and a lawsuit actually started. When things don=t settle, however, terminated employees sometimes end up before a judge who will decide their case.
