The plaintiff, a 55-year-old employee with 25.5 years of service, was terminated without cause from his position as Director, Customer Development, Retail Sales.
He brought a motion for summary judgment seeking damages for wrongful dismissal.
The court found summary judgment appropriate and awarded a 22-month reasonable notice period.
The court also held the plaintiff was entitled to compensation for his lost bonus, pension, and health benefits during the notice period, and found the employer failed to prove the plaintiff did not adequately mitigate his damages.
