What is constructive dismissal?

At common law, a constructive dismissal occurs where an employer unilaterally makes a fundamental change to an employee’s terms and conditions of employment without providing the employee with reasonable notice of the change. Where this happens, the employee may elect to treat the employer’s actions as a repudiation of the employment contract and commence an action for wrongful dismissal.
