Employers are obligated by law to treat their employees fairly and to act in good faith.

What Makes a Termination Bad Faith

Employers have a legal obligation to act in good faith when terminating an employee. If an employer does not discharge this duty properly, the employee may have grounds to sue the employer for a bad faith termination. The Supreme Court of Canada established in the landmark 1997 decision, Wallace v. United Grain Growers Limited, that employers must be candid, reasonable, honest and forthright with their employees, and should refrain from engaging in conduct that is unfair, untruthful, misleading or insensitive. Even if the termination was otherwise legal or valid, the employer may still have liable for damages if the manner of dismissal shares the above characteristics.  

Examples of bad faith conduct include the employer making declarations that result in an attack on the employee’s reputation, misrepresenting the employee’s reason for leaving, or terminating the employee to deny them a right such as a pension benefit. 

The employee has the burden of proving that the employer engaged in bad faith conduct during the termination process.

When an employer acts in bad faith during the termination process, an employee may be entitled to damages. These damages are meant to compensate the employee to offset their losses rather than act punitively as a deterrent for an employer’s poor conduct. Importantly, the burden of proving that the losses were cause by the bad faith conduct belongs to the employee, not the employer.

In the past, the penalty for an employer violating their duty to dismiss in good faith was simply an increase in the length of the notice period provided to the terminated employee. That changed in 2008, when the Supreme Court of Canada held in their 2008 decision, Honda Canada Inc. v. Keays, that bad faith awards are to be considered separately from a notice award. Thus, it is no longer calculated by adding it to the determined notice period.

The Supreme Court’s rationale was that bad faith dismissals and resulting losses could cause psychological damage and mental distress. This is separate from the basic economic losses stemming from a wrongful dismissal. Therefore, the employee must show (again, the employee has the burden of proof) that the manner of dismissal caused mental or psychological damage in order to receive a damage award for bad faith conduct.

How Bad Faith Damages Are Determined

EMPLOYMENT LAW

Stacey Ball of Ball Professional Corporation was the lawyer acting on behalf of the winning party in the landmark case, Wallace v. United Grain Growers Ltd.. It was in this decision, with the help of top Toronto employment lawyer Stacey Ball, that the employer’s obligation of good faith and fair dealing in the manner of dismissal was created. The court stated, at paragraph 98, that although the obligation of good faith and fair dealing is incapable of precise definition, at a minimum, it should require: “in the course of dismissal employers ought to be candid, reasonable, honest and forthright with their employees and should refrain from engaging in conduct that is unfair or is in bad faith by being, for example, untruthful, misleading or unduly insensitive.” [Emphasis added]

Thanks to the obligation of good faith and fair dealing, an employer in violation of the obligation could be liable for a separate quantum of damages, entirely independent of damages for reasonable notice. Bad faith discharge or discharge for bad faith can therefore create an actionable wrong in its own right. However, it is noteworthy that bad faith discharges or breaches of the implied obligation of good faith and fair dealing in the manner of dismissal are not all equally injurious. A trial judge must, in each case, examine the nature of the bad faith conduct and its impact.

The employer’s duty of good faith and fair dealing has now been extended to not merely the termination of employment, but the existing relationship prior to termination. See Colwell v. Cornerstone Properties Inc. [2008] O.J. NO. 5092 (SC). The breach of the implied obligation of good faith and fair dealing can provide the dismissed employee not only damages for mental distress and loss of reputation, but also economic losses engendered by the manner of the dismissal.

Following the Wallace decision, the Supreme Court of Canada decided Honda Canada Inc. v. Keays. Here, it was decided that bad faith discharges or breaches of the implied obligation of good faith and fair dealing should not result in an extended notice period (as was the conclusion in Wallace) but should instead lead to foreseeable compensable damages not subject to mitigation. Notwithstanding this, it is possible that a reasonable notice period could be extended where the manner of dismissal renders one unemployed or unemployable for a longer period of time than they otherwise would have been.

Examples of Bad Faith Discharge: Breach of Duty of Good Faith and Fair Dealing in the Manner of Dismissal

The following are examples of circumstances in which an employer’s conduct was found to have breached the duty of good faith and fair dealing in the manner of dismissal:

  • In Martin v. International Maple Leaf Springs Water Corp., the reasonable notice period was extended by three months because the employee was dismissed for reasons which were not true. The employee’s reputation was tarnished through false accusations of dishonesty and alcohol abuse;
  • In Bailey v. Service Corporation International (Canada) ULC, an employee was awarded $25,000 in aggravated damages in addition to $110,000 in punitive damages because, among other reasons, the employer fired him when he was known to be sick and seeking medical care, not telling him he was dismissed, and not giving him a chance to respond to the unfair assumption that he had abandoned his employment. The employer also falsely alleged there was cause for dismissal, accusing the employee of being dishonest;
  • In Acumen Law Corporation v Ojanen, an employee was awarded $50,000 in aggravated damages because the employer, among other things, fired her before offering her an opportunity to explain herself, accused her of deceit and dishonesty (accusations which were harsh and unwarranted), and fired her publicly in front of her classmates despite being able to do so privately instead;
  • In Hamer-Jackson v. McCall Pontiac Buick Ltd., a reasonable notice period was extended by six months due to statements that were circulated in the used and new car industry against the dismissed employee;
  • In Squires v. Corner Brook Pulp & Paper Ltd., a reasonable notice period was extended by six months where the employee was given no warning of their dismissal, was not given an opportunity to defend himself, and was threatened to be dismissed for cause if the employee refused to accept the employer’s settlement offer; and
  • In Tannous v. Donaghue, an employee was awarded $15,000 in aggravated damages after being assaulted at the time she was dismissed by the owner of the company for whom she worked. According to the court, “the [employee] has suffered an actual extended period of disability that followed from the collective actions of the [employer] in the termination from her employment for which she will not be compensated”.

EMPLOYMENT LAW

EMPLOYMENT LAW

Arguments regarding bad faith discharges are not always successful. The employee has the burden of showing that their employer engaged in bad faith conduct or unfair dealings in the manner of dismissal, and that their injuries flow not from the dismissal itself but from the manner in which it was effected. Employees are not always successful in discharging this burden. Examples of circumstances in which a bad faith discharge was not found include:

  • In Gaudio v. Banca Commerciale Italiana of Canada, there was no award of extended damages where the mental distress experienced by the employee stemmed from the fact they had been terminated and not from the manner in which they were terminated;
  • In Clendenning v. Lowndes Lambert (B.C.) Ltd., an it did not necessarily follow that there would be a breach of the implied obligation of good faith and fair dealing where an employer makes unsuccessful cause allegations with a solid foundation in the evidence; and
  • In Blondeau v. Holiday Ford Sales (1980) Ltd., extended damages were denied where an employer failed to communicate their intention of returning the employee to her job on a gradual basis, causing her to reasonably believe she had been constructively dismissed.

Having an experienced employment law counsel, such as Stacey Ball of Ball Professional Corporation, will make it far more likely that your claim of bad faith discharge is successful.

Stacey was the third lawyer that I had hired to represent me, after the previous two didn't achieve anything for me. Stacey is very different. He is not only the author of Canadian Employment Law with profound knowledge and experience, he is also the most efficient one, direct to the point. He is the toughest one, well known by HR people, and he takes care of his client all by himself. There is no junior lawyers under him. That's the big difference comparing with other big employment law firms on Google, where I could only meet with a young lawyer with little experience. After he spoke with me for 45 minutes, he found the best way to break through. He didn't need to ask for a lot of document and he didn't bill hours to review them. His fee structure is aligned with his client's best interest. My problem was solved very quickly with a great result, and I only have to meet with him twice and exchange some emails. He's not just a tough fighter and negotiator, he got great strategy to make a deal. He answered my emails during the holidays. He comes in the office very early, and we had a conference call at 7am in the morning when we need to make a quick decision. To me, he is the best employment lawyer, a patient teacher and a friend. I strongly recommend him to those who need help.

Stacey was super helpful and increased my settlement a significant amount. He is very busy so you have to chase him down a bit but that is minor issue compared to all of the positives. Overall if you need a good labour lawyer then talk to him right away. He is THE lawyer to go to in Ontario!Thanks Stacey!

My experience with Stacey R. Ball was very positive. His fees are reasonable and value I received for the money was outstanding. Luckily, after his advice my situation was resolved almost amicably. You will not believe how reasonable some people can become after they start suspecting you have a good lawyer. An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure. If you suspect you might need a lawyer in the future because of some developing situation at work, I highly recommend you wait no more and talk to Stacey.

If I could give Stacey Ball 30 stars I would! Stacey was right on the “ball” when it came to my legal matter. I called his office and his efficient staff scheduled me for an appointment the next day. He’s a great listener and comes to the point quickly, confidently, and succinctly. He explained best and worst case scenarios and dealt with my matter without delay. He was successful in concluding my legal matter to my satisfaction and met all my expectations. I highly recommend Stacey for all your legal matters.Alexa

Mr Ball represented me in a wrongful dismissal case. It was quite evident from my initial consultation until the conclusion of my settlement. Mr. Ball mirrored professionalism, empathy and above all confidence. Mr Ball reviewed my case and informed me what I was entitled to and what to expect at time of settlement. I was represented diligently right up to the conclusion of my settlement. He was able to negotiate an amount that was above my expectations. I would highly recommend Mr. Ball to anyone in need of assistance in any type of employment situations. In conclusion that one of the main things that impressed me most was that he at all times puts his clients FIRST.

Stacey was my second lawyer I retained after my original lawyer felt that he would be better suited to deal with my difficult employment matter. Stacey was very direct, efficient and respectful of my time. He was tenacious in negotiations and challenged/invalidated all points the other lawyer argued. I would not have achieved my outcome without Stacey. Thank you!Daphne Scott

I would highly recommend Stacey Ball any time! Stacey accurately pinpointed the challenges of our situation and gave solid advice right from the beginning. When things got confusing for me, he took the time to explain them in lay terms so I could make informed decisions. A big thank you to Stacey ball and his team for helping me with a stressful situation and for always being there to smooth things over. We were even able to have a laugh or two and he definitely brings a human touch to legal matters which can be super uncomfortable for "regular" people that don't deal with legalese every day!

I would strongly recommend Stacey and his services for any employment related legal issues. His academic and professional experience provide a unique approach to strategizing over a case with his clients best interest in mind, and builds the case based on facts. He is an advocate for employees who have been wronged and his work with the supreme court demonstrates his commitment to changing the system for the better.

A few months ago, I was blindsided by my three partners who had decided to buy me out, at a fraction of the original investment contribution that I made when I joined the company. I decided to hire Stacey after interviewing him at his office. I knew then and there that he would make put my former partners in their place. Thank fully, I was right and Stacey took care of the matter in mediation, getting me 100% of what I was entitled to. The man is a legend in employment law and has the credentials to prove it, after all, he wrote the book on employment law! Thank you Stacey, appreciate all you've done. Best, LK.

I had spoken with three lawyers before I met with Stacey Ball. What I liked about our meeting was that Mr. Ball provided answers to my questions and made me feel that he had my best interests in mind. I was informed of a settlement amount I would be entitled to receive and he worked at getting it. You will get a chance to get some sleep knowing that your case will be resolved promptly and that your rights are being looked after. You will find his fees are competitive but fair as he evaluates each situation separately. If you want to know what you rights are, want results, without wasting time, look no further. My case was handled efficiently and I would recommend his services to anyone that asks. A big thank you Stacey Ball for your services.

I got fired with no explanation from a workplace where i spend 4 years. I immediately started looking for a lawyer and got in touch with Stacey. He reviewed my case, helped me to calculate my severance pay and prepare all the proper documents. I would say Stacey is very knowledgeable and helpful in unfair dismissal cases. I would recommend him.

I was extremely pleased with the service provided by Mr. Stacey Ball and assistants. When I first approached him with my situation-a severance package well below merit, he was very direct with what is a reasonable severance and what he wanted to negotiate for me. Within a very short time he was able to get me 70% more above the initial severance offer and an additional 10% for pension and benefits. The timeline worked out beautifully as I did not fall short of funds while waiting for the settlement. I was pleasantly surprised and grateful of the outcome. In addition, his fees were very reasonable and were hardly felt. Thanks again Stacey.:)

I was transferred to night shifts by my manager without asking if can/want work nights. When i confronted him i was told either take night shifts or leave the company. Mr. Ball really helped me to sort out this situation and get proper compensation for my  constructive dismissal case. Mr. Ball acted professionally and at the same time friendly at all times. He was very supportive and very positive about the outcome of my case. He is a very good person.

An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure. If you suspect you might need a lawyer in the future because of some developing situation at work, I highly recommend you wait no more and talk to Stacey.Update in 2020:I cannot write more reviews, it looks like one review per account, so I am editing the existing review. Another unrelated incident in 2020. Another consultation and advice what to do next in order to steer clear of unpleasant developments. His very reasonable consultation fee is the best investment I ever made in my peace of mind. He was busy so he could not meet me on the day I wanted, but he met me two days later, which was perfectly fine. After talking to him it became much more clear to me what to do and what to avoid doing. Quotes Supreme Court cases as references when he explains things as to what to do and why, looks like he knows them by heart. There is a good reason why he is busy. He is a very effective lawyer. Very highly recommend.

I hired Stacey about 10 years ago now to represent me on a constructive dismissal case. After my first meeting with him, I felt very confident he would do the long haul and stick through the tough times ahead. It was a long stressful two-year battle but we were successful in winning my case. Unfortunately I lost my job in April at the start of the pandemic. My employer terminated me without cause so the first person that popped into mind was Stacey. Again he took on my case and after just a couple of months, negotiated a strong settlement for me. I would recommend Stacey to my friends, family and anyone who is not familiar with employment law or feels like they are being taken advantage of by their employer.

We would highly recommend Stacey to anyone who needs employment legal services. This was the first time we hired a lawyer to represent us for wrongful dismissal. Our case was a unique one which required creativity and an in-depth knowledge of employment law. It was evident to us in our first meeting that Stacey would be able to fight for our case because he listened to our situation and provided several strategies that we could work toward to achieve the result we want. The process was clear in the first day and the fees structure was discussed on the same day. Following his guidance, we were able to negotiate a strong settlement. Even though the process was stressful, he made it much easier for us and we shared a lot of laughs together. Thank you for standing up for us!
