lol. Classic.

I was told by a Saskatchewan arbitrator that he wasn’t interested in arguments about how similar statutory language is interpreted ‘out east’. Because they do things their own way in Saskatchewan.

Eric Sherkin@ericsherkin

@TheLawofWork I was a 1st yr associate arguing a motion in Guelph on short notice (partner on the file was speaking at a conference and didn't want to miss it) and being told by the judge that "I know how things are in Toronto, but sharp practice stops when you cross the Humber River."

Supporting point I’ve long made, which is that most employees are much better off without a written employment contract in Canada.

Only if employee has unusual bargaining power and a lawyer negotiating the contract is a written contract better for employees.

Kent Employment Law@Kent_Employment

Most employers do not use written #employmentagreements in their business. Unfortunately, they can miss out on an opportunity to limit their financial liability from employee dismissals and achieve clarity around all aspects of the employment relationship.
