ABOUT THE SHOW
The Employment Law Show everyone in Ontario and British Columbia are talking about!
Employment lawyer Lior Samfiru and host John Scholes tackle the most important facets of employment law that are far too often overlooked by both employees and employers. From grossly inadequate severance pay, to sexual harassment in the workplace, to employees being routinely mislabeled as independent contractors, Employment Hour in 30 will debunk the myths that have caused employees to miss out on their full workplace rights and entitlements.
Lior Samfiru resolves workplace problems. He has established a reputation as a leading employment lawyer in Ontario and British Columbia, and is one of the most sought after authorities on employment law.

+ You are only entitled to 1 - 2 weeks' pay for every year of service
That is wrong. There is no rule of 1 or 2 weeks' pay per year worked where common law severance is concerned. Multiple factors determine the amount of severance.
+ Your employer's severance offer deadline is legally binding
Not even close. Your legal rights don't expire by the end of the week. You actually have TWO YEARS to pursue severance. Don't sign off on a severance offer before we review it to ensure that your full rights are respected!
Are you REALLY an Independent Contractor? Many contractors are, in fact, employees, but have been misclassified by their employer. Bill 148 was just passed into law, and brings a risk of fines, penalties and orders to pay severance to terminated contractors for employers who incorrectly label employees as independent contractors.
Employment Lawyer Lior Samfiru explains the important differences between the two positions, and what to do if you have been misclassified.
