In response to above and please note that employers cannot terminate the employee without benefits unless it is for proven misconduct. The employee has a legal right to send a legal notice/grievance demanding notice pay and severance. File a complaint with the provincial Labour Department. If unresolved, approach the Labour Court/Industrial Tribunal for recovery of dues and compensation. Automation does not remove the employer's duty to pay full legal termination benefits. Employees can challenge and recover dues through labour law remedies. This opinion is without the information of appointment letter and employment actual status. Thanking you,
