I was a contractor for a company for 4.5 years. I was terminated this week via slack message. I signed one contract in 2020 when I was hired and nothing since then and received $15k in raises. I am curious what I am entitled to as I was a contractor but I worked in the office doing administrative work.

Despite being labelled a contractor, you may still be entitled to severance pay if you are actually found to be employee or dependent contractor under the law (note: the label assigned to you by the company is essentially irrelevant). Therefore, I recommend you contact our firm to discuss the matter in more detail and determine how we can assist you secure severance pay.
