The appellant appealed the dismissal of his action for common law severance damages for wrongful dismissal.
He argued that a clause in his employment contract was void because it attempted to contract out of the Employment Standards Act regarding the inclusion of bonuses in termination pay.
The Court of Appeal upheld the motion judge's finding that the clause, read in context, preserved the appellant's statutory entitlements.
The appeal and the respondent's cross-appeal on costs were both dismissed.
