Why you should Attend

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.

We'll break down how employment contracts can impact termination and legal requirements and best practices before, during and after a termination. The session also explores the range of potential outcomes employers may face when ending employment, from smooth departures to complex negotiations and formal claims.

Attendees will gain actionable strategies for navigating termination, managing severance negotiations, and responding effectively to potential wrongful dismissal allegations. You’ll leave with practical tips and insights that help you approach terminations confidently, compliantly, and with a clear understanding of how to mitigate risk at every stage.
