Frequently Asked Questions
What is an independent contractor?
What is an independent contractor?
An independent contractor is a person or entity contracted to perform work for or provide services to another entity as a non-employee. Independent contractors do not have the same rights or responsibilities as employees. Determining if you are an independent contractor is complicated, and the label “independent contractor” does not decide the issue. Factors to consider include:
- Who directs the work?
- Who profits or risks loss?
- Who provides the necessary tools?
- Is there an ongoing relationship?
What is constructive dismissal?
What is constructive dismissal?
Constructive dismissal occurs when an employer fundamentally changes the work situation, and the employee does not accept the change. This situation may be treated the same as being fired, with the same notice requirements. Generally, there is constructive dismissal when:
- The employer fundamentally changes a key aspect of the work,
- The employee would not have expected it, and
- The employee does not agree to the change.
What is workplace discrimination?
What is workplace discrimination?
Canadians have the right to be treated fairly in workplaces free from discrimination. The Canadian Human Rights Act is legislation that prohibits discrimination based on gender, race, ethnicity, and other grounds. Also, Canada’s Employment Equity Act and the Federal Contractors Program require employers to take active measures to improve the employment opportunities for specific groups of people in Canada. Harassment can be evidence of discrimination and can lead to a discrimination claim that goes to court or a tribunal.
