There is a possibility for a constructive dismissal case, depending on a couple of factors

I was fired with cause, along with 20 other employees, for claiming sunglasses on our health benefit plan. This occurred at a time when the company was in the process of merging two operations into one. Consequently, they had to downsize. Do I have any recourse?It sounds like your employer is using the sunglasses claim as a way to escape its common law or statutory obligation to provide you notice of termination or pay in lieu of notice.

While it will depend on the specific circumstances of your case, the improper claim for sunglasses may not rise to the level of just cause for summary dismissal. If 20 other employees made similar claims, there was likely confusion as to whether such claims were allowed.

Even facebook bad as well

If they fired you for that, there is a bigger story and they wanted you gone. If they paid you the legal amount of compensation and fired you with cause, your done, nothing you can do. Theres a reason they wanted you gone.

There must be more to this story.
