Large layoff was announced company wide. A about a week later I found out that I was on the list by looking at a file in my buget folder on the server. Next to each individuals name that was being laid off was an area for comments that were filled in. Some were due to last hire, some due to consolidation, another based on performance review. Next to my name it listed maternity leave.
I sent an email with the attachment from my work to home email address to leave an electronic trail.
After I received my letter informing me of my layoff the company continued to retain the temp brought in to fill in during the time I was out. Once my maternity leave finished then she was let go.
Do I have any basis for a suit?
