Employment Law for Individuals
Employment law can be a complicated and confusing process that can leave individuals feeling overwhelmed and just not knowing what to do.
How do I know if I’m entitled to employee compensation?
Employees have rights under contract, statute, and common law. These are the main sources of your rights as an employee and the impact the assessment of entitlements like your severance package.
Knowing your entitlements and rights will depend on how these three sources interact.
For example, at common law you may be entitled to a longer period of notice (or a larger severance package), but your contract may contain restrictions. Similarly, your contract may restrict your rights, but legislation could prevent the contract from enforcing those restrictions.
