Product description

Employment standards acts dictate the minimum terms of employment that must be complied with by employers in both the profit and not-for-profit sectors. Focusing on the charity laws of Ontario and British Columbia, this book takes you step-by-step through the legislative requirements. It also addresses the unique concerns confronting charities and not-for-profits such as:
  • Personal liability of directors of not-for-profits in relation to the breach of employment law provisions
  • Why charities should check wage and benefit levels when requesting funding and budgets
  • Employment law implications of a merger or splitting up of a charity
  • Application of employment law legislation to volunteers
  • Employment selection decisions in light of human rights legislation
  • Service rights of contracted fundraisers

The Appendices (provided by Imagine Canada) includes examples of an Executive Director Job Description, a Supervisor Guide, an Employee Guide, a Personal Development Plan and Sample Interview Questions for the Executive Director Position of a charitable organization.
