In the future, if you have health or pay problems that may relate back
to your job, you will want to have certain information. If you don't get it
when you leave the job, it may be next to impossible to get afterwards.

- Name, address, telephone numbers, etc. of the business.

no matter how minor.

an incident (safety officer, worker safety rep, nurse, doctor).

Has your employer terminated your employment? Your employer isn't required
to give you a reason for being terminated. However, there are some
reasons your employer cannot use to terminate you. For example, your employer
cannot terminate you for asking questions about the law, refusing to work
excess hours, or taking pregnancy, parental or emergency leave. (See
What should I get paid: Termination pay)
Under the law, an employer can terminate an
employee who has been employed continuously for three months or more if the
employer has given the employee proper written notice of termination and the
notice period has expired.
OR
An employer can terminate the employment of an
employee without written notice or with less notice than is required if the
employer pays termination pay to the employee. When employment ends, all wages owing to the employee are due and payable
either seven days after the employment ends, or the day that would have been the employee's next pay day, whichever is later. Contact us if you have problems.
