The organization refers to the way in which telework will be regulated.
“If Parliament requires employers to obtain employee consent for teleworking during the alert period, it will create a logistical effort that is difficult to manage for companies that can organize work from home for a significant portion of the workforce, especially if We imagine unfortunate situations in which the authorities will have to impose new restrictions and companies will have to react quickly.
The fact that the employee must physically appear at work to sign the agreement to carry out teleworking or work at home is not only anachronistic, but also dangerous from an epidemiological point of view, since it is precisely exposed to risk of infection with the SARS-CoV coronavirus, which we are trying to avoid. During the state of emergency, neither employers nor employees reported problems in implementing teleworking or work at home by employer’s request, “the organization shows.
During the state of emergency, the main concern of the members of the Concordia Employers’ Confederation was to guarantee, by all means, the safety of the more than 300,000 employees of our members. “The danger has not passed, and changing the teleworking regime for the alert period makes it impossible for us to do this. The law must continue to allow the employer to take the necessary steps to protect employees, including the ability to order the Teleworking measure when necessary, without complicating the process by introducing the obligation to obtain the consent of the employees. In this way, without complicating the process, the employer can continue the activity, without affecting the employee’s income, which is for your benefit.
We understand the urgency of adopting the bill, but we believe that it is necessary to maintain the same objectives as the other regulations that regulate this difficult period, namely to protect employees from the risk of infection with the SARS-CoV-2 coronavirus in case going back to work. the play. In short, in terms of telecommuting and working at home, we ask that the same regime be maintained during the state of alert during the state of emergency. ”
