Description:
The on-going COVID-19 pandemic has employers walking a legal tightrope in terms of employee attendance management. The issues of elder care and constantly shifting school schedules has exacerbated the challenge that employers face.
The Webinar will discuss:
- The rights of employees to “work at home” due to child care needs created by students learning at home. Does it matter if a parent chooses not to send a student back to school?
- Does an employee have a blanket right to refuse to return to work due to living with a potentially vulnerable person?
- What happens if the job can’t be performed from home?
- Preventing reprisal claims: How to handle performance issues with an employee who is raising concerns about human rights issues
- What happens if an employer breaches the Human Rights Code? Can an employer be ordered to allow an employee to work at home?
