That's just crazy!

Where is the world coming to?

I fired a woman after only six weeks of employment. She absolutely had no idea what she was doing. When she filed for unemployment, and got it, they told me I could not fire her for not knowing how to do her job. They said she had to have broken a company policy, to which I replied, she lied on her resumé about her qualifications. That didn’t cut it. Now, everybody gets written up for every stupid infraction so if this happens again, at least now I have a paper trail. The worlds gone bonkers.

Would you ever consider hiring Mr. Goodrum, CSN, MFT, HPP, CEO?

That completely Crackers - She lied & couldn’t do the job she was employed to do
And you couldn’t get Rid of Her.
What sort of idiots came up with that ruling.

Companies will begin hiring people on a contract basis only, with permanent hires being a minority.

Haha, yes sir.

Unreal - the lack of introspection from leftists boggles the mind.

Also, note that all lefty celebs wanted to move to majority-White Canada, and not to Mexico.

I can't. Labor laws in Aus define a contractor so narrowly as to make it impossible to hire someone to work for me on an ongoing or even semi regular basis as a contractor.

So anyone who works for me is defined under the law as an employee, whom I have to carry on my insurance, pay sick and holiday leave, superannuation retirement funding, and long service levy. And the guy's wage.

I have to make $1.60 for each $1 he receives just to break even. If this isn't working out for me, I can't fire him without 3 written warnings, and as far as I know "loses me money" isn't justifiable grounds for dismissal.

So I'm not hiring. They protected workers right into unemployment.

Ha ha ha - Yes That’s True - You’d think as they want to Flood America with Mexicans
They’d want to go Live in Mexico with Them.
Not A majority White Country.

Yes- that is exactly what the legislation leads to!  For advanced tech projects I now hire services through Upworks, a freelance engineer tech site. Last engineer I contracted with lived in Romania ( I am in the US) and did the project in half the time of a full time engineer I had.

Trump should have deported them.

Should be publicly lynched. Vermin

Agreed - useless Twats.

so, lie on your application, get the job, get fired, and then sue and quote this case as precedent..

[Irongrip400]

Yes, but I’m not sure what for, but I’d find him something to do. Vince is a solid dude.

LOL!

Wtf...was it that obvious?

the problem stems from questions which the company did not have the right to ask - so you can't just lie about anything - this was a very specific case

[Tapeworm]

Sounds more like one part of the government says you can't hire someone who doesn't have the right to work and another part of the government says asking them if they have the right to work is discriminatory.

Maybe the first part will take his $120,000 away since he doesn't have the right to earn income in Canada.

it seems that Ontario is now not allowed to differentiate between residents who can start full time employment as opposed to non residents who can't??

The employer distinguished between candidates based on whether or not they were Canadian citizens. The tribunal ruled that this distinction was not a bona fide occupational requirement. Though it is legitimate not to hire someone because they lied, if the reason they lied was to avoid discriminatory treatment, the tribunal held, the lie is justified and the question illegal.

As an employer you should be able to pick the candidate in the best postion and MOST qualified to start (residents are more qualified than non residents)

Wrong decision in my opinion.

I could see someone ticking the wrong box and then suing because they were labelled dishonest as opposed to making a mistake on completion of the form

[falco]

Canada deported 100 thousand portuguese working Christians to make room to all the Haseeb's that now have all the rights in the country.
Fuck you very much.
