Employer

Who is the employer?

STC must answer this question: "Who is the employer?".

The term "employer" is not defined in the Act. In STC's case, as in the majority of cases where there is only one potential employer which all employees recognize, the answer is easy - STC is the employer.

Asking the following questions will help determine the employer:

  • who hires;
  • who fires;
  • who disciplines;
  • who issues T- 4 slips;
  • who sets policy;
  • is there an employer-employee relationship from the employees' point of view, or was there an intention to create one.
