I took an internal transfer to another department which was far from my home location(around 120kms one way) but as it was a 2 day in office per week I took the position. Within 3 months into the role the management decided to go 3 days a week. This put me under pressure as the extra day caused a significant problem to my work life balance gave me frequent back ace and not getting enough sleep. The management refused to help me and I still find it difficult to cope with this change. Called Employement Insurance to know if I would be eligible for EI if I quit due to commute. They didn’t give me a proper answer they want me to resign first and they would assess it. This seems not a smart to resigne first and then know if I would be eligible for an EI. Please help me in knowing what rights I have?

Thank you for your question. We will need additional details to properly assess your situation. Do not resign prior to speaking with one of our employment lawyers. Please contact us at your earliest convenience to schedule a formal consultation.
