Add Comment Question: I was terminated for cause and let go April 28th. I was paid on my regular pay day May 1 for the previous 2 weeks employment. I am still owed between 90-100 hours of my banked vacation hours and 1 day pay for the Monday I was terminated. It has been 7 days and still have not received what is left owing to me. They stated they were not paying me until the 15th may which would be my next regular pay day. Am I wrong in thinking that they only had 7 days to pay me out? Answer: If your employment was governed by the Employment Standards Act, 2000, any outstanding wages must be paid not later than the later of: (a) seven days after your employment ended; and (b) the day that would have been your next pay day. Many employers mistakenly allege “cause” for termination when the circumstances do not in fact rise to the level needed to lawfully terminate an employee for cause. We strongly encourage you to contact our firm to schedule a consultation with one of our employment lawyers who can assess your situation and ensure that you receive your lawful termination entitlements.
