Just one day before my termination date, I got a warning.?
|
Now, my friend told me the company can't terminate me just one day after they gave me a warning. They have to give me a chance to do better for at least 3 days. Is he right?
Thanks.

Thanks for all the answers. My warning didn't say anything at all about my job performance. My job was perfect. The warning says that I didn't do anything. But I did all my job for the day. I even had time to help my other coworkers or did my job that supposed to be for next day. Now, I heard from my former coworkers that still work there, they need 2 people to do my job. And they just do 3/4 of it. They don't do the other 1/4. They don't know how to do it.
Even my former supervisor who gave me the warning can't do my job. Meaning, she didn't understand how to do it. Sorry, I'm not bragging. But I worked there for about 4 years, and this is my new supervisor. I moved to her department just about 5 months. And I did the same thing I've been doing since I started worked there. And I never got any warning before. This was my first warning.

An employer can terminate your employment at any time. However, if you were given a warning the day before you were terminated, it would seem that the employer was giving you a chance to correct the problem, if you went into work the next day and had not corrected the problem, they could terminate your employment. There is no set rule as to how many days you have to correct the problem unless it was stated in the warning, this is usually not the case.
Therefore, the company warned you about the problem they wanted corrected and apparently felt that you did not correct the problem in which turn they terminated your employment. This is a tactic used most commonly for a employer to cover themselves from paying unemployment claims. They have now prooven to unemployment that you were warned before they terminated your employment. Thus, they went above and beyond before they terminated your employment.
There are only two cenarious in which I can say that you would need a reasonable amount of time to correct the problem. The first would be in the area of performance. If you were not performing the duties of the job for which you were hired and it was of no fault of your own, they would address the areas of performance that need improvement and give you an adequate amount of time to get your performance up. If you were not meeting the performance of the job because you were up and about talking with your co-workers than this would not apply. The second scenario would be if you had an absenteeism or tardy issue, than you would be warned and the next time that you were absent or tardy you would be terminated.
I hope that this clarifies your question, if you require additional information add additional information to your question or send me an email and I would be happy to elaborate.
Best wishes. |

Legally they don't even have to give you any warning, unless you have a contract that requires prior warning or a series of warnings. |
