Add Comment Question: I work for a bank and most office employees have been working from home fulltime for the last five years. However executive management is now mandating all employees to work in the office most of the week. The employment contract does not address this issue at all. If I insist on continuing to work from home, would they be required to pay severance if they fire me? Thank you for your guidance. Answer: My name is David Vaughan and I'm an employment lawyer from Samfiru Tumarkin. You would have a solid argument that the Bank's decision to require you to return to work in the office constitutes a constructive dismissal, entitling you to severance pay. I recommend you contact our firm to discuss the matter in more detail and determine how we can assist you.
