WDW101Y1 Lecture Notes - Lecture 8: Temporary Work, Reverse Onus
Document Summary
-labour standards should ensure that no matter how limited his or her bargaining power, no worker in the federal jurisdiction is offered, accepts or works under conditions that canadians would not regard as. No workers should therefore receive a wage that is insufficient to live on. Normally, ees will complain their employment standards after they quit the job. Gaps in the esa self-employment is excluded from the esa, where employers have fewer responsibilities. Ees legally employed by some company agencies, and those agencies take proportion of their wages per month. Externalizing employment costs to temporary help agencies is yet another fast-growing strategy. Expand the definition of employee to ensure people are not excluded from esa protection. Make employer liable for wages and all esa entitlements, even when they are subcontractors, temporary help agencies and other intermediaries. Temporary help agencies ensure that temp agency workers receive the same salary. Misclassification practices dominate sectors such as cleaning, trucking, food delivery.
