Contracted on a yearly 12 month term for 4 yrs then they switched it to a 6 month term notifying me about that change 2 months later into the last term without without any consultation with me. They said extension options maybe possible but I was notified 3 wks ago that they will not renew or extend it. I was with this same company almost 15 yrs prior when they did a mass layoff then too and I received a severance, but in this rehire they only gave me a contract option and now another mass layoff, and I was hit again but without any severance. Am I eligible for a severance with this new Employee Contract situation since they do take deduction (EI, Taxes, etc.) all off my paychecks.
