Question

What claim does an employer have on a persons feelings, rights and privacy? What rights are you willing to give up to be employed? what rights can an employer justifiably limit In a workplace?

Answer 1

In any workplace, employers and employees have responsibilities to fulfill in order to work in a smooth environment. Employees and Employers can file a claim through the Employment Standards Claim Act, 2000.

Filing a claim is free. And it is against the law for your employer to punish you for filing a claim.

Some of the sets covered in ESA specifically in terms of feelings, rights, and privacy include:

1. Payment of Wages

2. Tips and other Gratuities

3.Public Holidays

4. Overtime Pay

5. Pregnancy and Parental Leave

6. Sick leave, Family Responsibility Leave, and Bereavement Leave

7. Eating Period and Rest Period

8. Reprisals

9. Invading in personal life

10. Right to be free from discrimination and harassment of all types

Employers Right includes

1. They have the right to demand work as per required

2. Can demand high-quality work

3. They obviously can demand loyalty from their employees

4. They have the right to protect trade secrets and confidential business information.

State to State the claims may differ.

It is a personal choice to give up some rights to be an employee. It may vary from person to person. Employees should evaluate the ESA and consider what rights may not affect them if they give up.

Personally, if I have any right to give up to be an employee, I will not give up any rights that are against the interest of the firm or my fellow employees or include any unfair practices. I may give up rights like public holidays if at my work I get enough holidays and I get paid for it. (which is a fair deal, I suppose) :)
