What is constructive dismissal? Under what situations can I claim constructive dismissal?
Constructive dismissal refers to situations where you feel your employer has behaved in such a way that it has shown an intention that it no longer wants you in its employment. To claim constructive dismissal you have to show that your employer violated a fundamental term or serious aspect of your employment contract. Some situations where you might be able to contend that you were constructively dismissed are where your employer reduces your salary without your consent, or demotes you to a lower position.
