Commencing the Employment Relationship
For the Employer:
Our service
starts at the beginning stages of the employment relationship,
drafting individualized and broad-based employment contracts,
including confidentiality, non-competition, and severance agreements. Remember, it is much more challenging to enforce
provisions of an employment contract if it is signed after the
employee has commenced working. So, do not delay this process. If
certain terms are not dealt with explicitly, employers may find
themselves relying on the Courts to settle any disputes. We
encourage being pro-active so that the company can better predict
the outcome of any dispute or disagreement, and to avoid costly
litigation down the road.
The Employment Standards Act sets minimum standards for
compensation and conditions of employment in the Province. These
standards must be adhered to and so human resources staff should
be very familiar with the requirements of this legislation. If
the employer does not have such a staff person, then we recommend
consulting with a lawyer to ensure that the Employment Standards
Act is being followed. Failure to do so may invalidate
parts of the employment contract and may result in a complaint
to the Employment Standards Branch.
For the Employee:
A contract is meant to
be a mutually acceptable arrangement. As
an employee, you should consider your options carefully before
signing any employment agreement. We want you to make sure
that you understand what you are agreeing to, so that you do not
have regrets when things do not progress as originally hoped.
