0:00 - Intro
1:35 Employee Drug Testing in the Workplace
An employee was off work with a bad back. He took some time off on disability, before returning to work. His employer wouldn't let him return to work, unless he took a drug test. Is that legal? Can an employer mandate drug testing for employees?
4:01 Telling Employer About Pregnancy
After applying for a job, my friend discovered that she was pregnant. If she is hired, and the employer finds out that she is pregnant, will the fact that she is on a probationary period make it easier for her employer to fire her?
6:49 Put on Plan After Missed Sales Target
After 5 years of flawless work, I missed my sales target by a tad last month, and now I’m on a Performance Improvement Plan! Can I refuse their plan, or would that count as insubordination, allowing them to fire me for cause?
8:59 You May Have Been Constructively Dismissed If
9:06 1️⃣ If your employer changed your compensation or salary
9:27 2️⃣ Your employer moved your workplace to a new location
12:29 3️⃣ Your work environment has become "poisoned"
13:37 4️⃣ You were demoted or saw responsibilities taken away
14:10 5️⃣ You have been put on a Temporary Layoff
16:48 Severance Pay Calculator
Why over 500,000 Canadians have used the Severance Pay Calculator to discover their rights, when a wrongful dismissal scenario is at play.
18:31 Severance Pay for 16-year Roofer
After working 16 years as a roofer, making $52K per year, Carl was fired last week. Just like that. No severance offered. He called the Ministry of Labour, who told him that because his boss had a payroll under $2.5 million, he’s not owed anything. Why does the Severance Pay Calculator suggest he IS owed severance pay?

20:49 Not The Right Fit & Fired
After 5 years of employment, I was terminated because I was simply “not the right fit”. Is this standard wording that employers are allowed to use now when they fire people?
23:37 Let Go Without Warning
I was let go with no warning after just under 4 years of service. I was only offered 3 weeks of severance, and nothing else. Am I entitled to anything more?
25:52 Lost Job Because Of Restructuring
I’ve just been let go after 4 years due to “restructuring”. I accepted the standard severance offer of 4 weeks’ pay. The paperwork I signed included a non-competition agreement, stating that I need my employer’s permission to work for a competitor anywhere in the province over the next 12 months. How am I supposed to find work now?

What if they say in the initial interview that there is a 3 month probationary period at $22/hr, then it goes up to $25, but then after 3 months it doesn’t go up and they now say it “may” go up but only to 23.50/hr?

Our company was bought out by another huge healthcare company that’s been in the news lately some people were switched to call center environment, there’s a certain person that can’t do call center environment because of medically documented issues. Most people quit, those that stayed are already looking to leave. What is the best solution here? We’re talking about a healthcare corporation that employs more than 100K workers
