Toronto Employment Lawyer Representing Employees

The stressful nature of employment disputes can overwhelm and intimidate employees seeking to assert their rights and hold their employer accountable for its legal obligations to its workers. Haynes Law Firm in Toronto works to place employees and employers on equal footing by advocating on behalf of employees facing workplace conflict, disciplinary matters, or termination.

Levelling the Playing Field Between Employers and Employees

Employees can face significant disadvantages when attempting to enforce their legal rights within the employment relationship due to the financial and power imbalances between workers and employers. Fear of reprisal or job loss can hinder employees from taking action to secure their rights and entitlements under employment law. Further, the trauma experienced by disciplined or terminated employees can complicate their efforts to pursue a legal remedy or seek compensation.
