What happens when I get suspended?

Question

Accepted Answer

Your employer should follow a fair process when deciding to suspend you. There may be rare cases when they may not have to give you the chance to comment on the concerns, e.g. where there could be immediate danger to you or others, or you’re unable to do safety-sensitive work.
If your employer doesn’t follow a fair process or have a good reason to suspend you, then you may have a personal grievance against them. Any suspension should be on full pay. Suspension without pay can only be considered if it is specifically provided for in the employment agreement.
