Contract extension with reduced employment conditions?
July 31, 2020
We are increasingly hearing stories of how workers' rights are being restricted. Employees who need to get a new contract often receive a bad offer from their employer. Using the justification of “economic crisis”, employees are being forced to surrender wages, hours or other compensations.
The Pinnacle of these practices was a technical employment agency which dissolved temporary employment contracts just before a collective labor agreement increase and then came up with a follow-up featuring fewer allowances. In this way, they not only circumvented the mandatory collective labor agreement increase but also forced a lower wage for the temporary worker.
It is clear that this type of practice is unacceptable. If this happens to you, you should contact a union or lawyer as soon as possible. Even if you simply do not accept the new agreement, you retain the right to transition compensation.
