New Policy Will Comply With Legislation

This is almost funny. In another report to council for the June 26 council meeting, titled New Policy – Electronic Monitoring of Employees, under Discussion: The Town of Amherstburg values trust, discretion and transparency and believes employees deserve to know when, how and for what purposes their work is being monitored.

Financial Matters states, ‘Failure to approve the Electronic Monitoring of Employees Policy may expose the Town to fines and other legal penalties under the Employment Standards Act, (2000).’ Shouldn’t that have been listed as a risk?
