Redden Law Can Work With You to Get the Compensation You Deserve

The purpose of the Employment Standards Act (ESA) is to provide the minimum standards, legal rights, and responsibilities of both employers and employees. In essence, it is a law that tells employers how to treat their workers fairly and protects most workers in Ontario, aside from federally regulated industries, such as banks and transportation.

It provides employers with rules about what they can and cannot do when it comes to:

• Minimum wage & overtime work
• Public holiday compensation
• Vacation time & pay
• Pregnancy & parental leave
• Personal emergency leave, including sick days
• Family medical leave, family caregiver leave, critically ill child care leave and crime-related child death or disappearance leave
• Termination & severance pay

As a worker in Ontario, you also have health and safety rights and the right to be free from discrimination. If you think your employer has not respected your rights as a worker, Redden Law can work with you to get the compensation you deserve. Call us today to discuss your matter.
