Was working for employer in the office prior to Covid 5 days a week. Sent home during Covid to work exclusively from home. In the spring of 2023 was told now that Covid is over had to return to the office 1 day a week and work the other 4 days from home. Company has just informed me I now have to come back into the office 3 days a week instead of 1 day. There is nothing in my contract referring to work location. After working only 1 day a week in the office for the past two years, do I now have to return to the office 3 days a week, or can I consider this change to the terms of my employment a constructive dismissal? Thanks.

This has become a prevalent issue following the conclusion of the COVID-19 pandemic, and it may be grounds for a constructive dismissal. In order to assess your particular situation, we require more information about your position and how these changes were implemented. Please contact our firm to schedule a consultation with one of our employment lawyers who can assess your constructive dismissal claim.
