Employer denied doctors note to work from home. If i quit, am I eligible for EI?
If your doctor recommends that you should work from home and this is denied by your employer, you should not automatically quit. Instead, you should apply for EI sickness benefits. Further, I recommend you contact our firm to speak to a lawyer about whether the employer's denial of your work from home accommodation constitutes a constructive dismissal and entitles you to severance pay.
