Refusing a work assignment in healthcare? Discover your rights


Questioner

Hello, There is a threat of a work order being given. I was wondering what the consequences are of refusing a work order and whether an employer is allowed to simply give a work order? I fall under the collective labor agreement for disabled care

Lawyer

The employee must comply with a reasonable request from the employer. Your CAO does not specify a work assignment. I can therefore not provide any information about the consequences. Is that what you were asked?

Questioner

What is meant by reasonable request? And does this mean that now that it is not included in the collective labor agreement, the employer can make up the rules themselves?
