Posted on March 4, 2016
Please join the Employment Law Group of Richards Buell Sutton LLP as they present an overview of their top 5 employment cases of 2015:
- Potter v. New Brunswick Legal Aid Services Commission (Supreme Court of Canada) – How did the Supreme Court clarify the test for “constructive dismissal” in Potter?
- Morgan v. Vitran Express Canada Inc. (Ontario Court of Appeal) – Does a demotion automatically amount to constructive dismissal?
- Steel v. Coast Capital Savings Credit Union (British Columbia Court of Appeal) – Has the law on “just cause” for a single incident changed?
- Bhasin v. Hrynew and Heritage Education Funds Inc. (Supreme Court of Canada) – What was the Supreme Court’s rationale for extending the organizing principle of good faith and the duty of honest performance to commercial contracts?
- Miller v. Convergys CMG Canada Limited Partnership, 2014 BCCA 311 – In the Spring of 2015, the Supreme Court of Canada denied leave to appeal the BC Court of Appeal’s decision upholding a termination provision in an employment agreement – Is this good news for Employers?
