Answering a query, the company spokesperson stated, "When it comes to wrongful dismissal, employers have a burden of proof to show that the employee failed to mitigate their losses by seeking comparable employment. This involves demonstrating that comparable employment opportunities were reasonably available, the employee did not pursue these opportunities diligently, and a reasonable person in the employee's position would have accepted or at least pursued such opportunities."

Typically, their legal services to employers involve assisting in drafting sound employment contracts that properly set out the parties' rights and obligations; preparing workplace policies that help minimize the risk of workplace disputes, including avoiding the financial consequences of provincial offences for failing to comply with safety and health legislation, and more. They also provide training to employees on discrimination, bullying and harassment, which has been highly effective and proactive in helping employers avoid costly litigation in the future. In the event their proactive measures fail, the attorneys at the law firm are also prepared to defend their clients in legal disputes. That is, before the courts and administrative tribunals, as well as in arbitrations.

The company spokesperson added, "In some cases, the employer may even offer re-employment as part of mitigation. However, courts usually scrutinize such offers to ensure they are genuine, not humiliating and not made in bad faith. For more insights, clients can contact us."
