Non union ON. I was hired during COVID (no in office work). I've been working remotely for 3.5 years. My company recently started requiring "non-remote" employees to come to the office 2 days per week. I am being told that if I am not in the office, they will treat it as a "voluntary resignation". Is it legal for my employer to treat my non-compliance as a voluntary resignation?

Resignations must be clear and unequivocal. In general, Employers cannot unilaterally change the terms of employees work, including location of work, without notice. I highly recomend you schedule an intake with a lawyer at our Firm to help you navigate this issue.
