what are employee rights under covid
My workplace starts to have two potential covid cases, both are asymptomatic and got from their family members and again from their respective workplace - One was tim horton one was a factory.
My company didn't even announce anything but just keep the two related members work from home and two weeks later they are back, I heard all this from kitchen talk!!.
They probably back with some negative test results, I guess, but I still think their returns are totally unnecessary, as they are both administrative roles, can absolutely work from home.
And my company just won't let them work from home any longer or allow us to WFH (office job) to lower potential risk.
I have no problem with the 2 co-workers, absolutely don't want anyone to lose a job because of sickness. but I just feel that the employers just don't care, and they just think WFH is too much luxury to employees.
I do track news and know covid can be infected A LOT of people without showing any symptom, any a test positive patient can still spread virus due to error in test. And if the same situation happens somewhere in China, they would lock down the entire building for weeks just for one potential contact - and China is the only one really solve the problem by doing that.
But, seems now Ontario can easily have 3k cases a day, geese, and nobody care, people still shopping and employer doesn't care, I just can't get it.
