"On November 23, 2016, the claimant, Thomas Gibbs, filed a claim with Ministry of Labour, alleging a contravention against the Employment Standards Act, 2000.

The claimant stated he should have been paid $222.75. The claimant indicated that when he confronted his employer about the overtime hours missing on his last cheque, the employer became hostile and told him he was trying to ""steal from him"". After that Mr. Gibbs told the employer he didn't have to take this kind of treatment and left. …show more content…

Mr. Donaldson indicated that Mr. Gibbs worked a total on 3 hours of overtime the week of October 16, 2016, and he was paid in full $44.55. The two of them had an intense discussion and claimant left, and has not come back. On December 6, 2016, this officer visited the workplace to investigate the claim. Two employees that worked the week of October 16, 2016, were interviewed. The employees indicated that when they work overtime hours, they would write them down on a sticky note for approval from the employer. They indicated that this system does not always work well, as sometimes the notes get lost. The employee, Samantha Feldman, stated that she worked Thursday and Friday with Mr. Gibbs. They worked 2 p.m. to 2 a.m., and accumulated 8 hours of overtime. Ms. Feldman indicated she was compensated for all her hours that week.

Donna Meader and I met with Lois Ryan, Allison Conklin, and Kim Warren on 3/17/16 from 10:30 to 11:30 regarding Jackie Watson’s FMLA. The meeting was scheduled by Chris Flyntz specifically to inquire about what options Chris has as a supervisor and what choices the agency has as a whole in regards to Jackie Watson’s continued absence from work. To begin the meeting, Chris provided each attendee with a copy of a calendar which is used as a tracking device for Jackie’s FMLA hours as well as non-FMLA hours. The calendar presented recorded Jackie’s absences from April 13, 2015 to current (FMLA hours were typed in, while non-FMLA hours were hand written in). It was noted that Jackie’s current FMLA paperwork received from her doctor indicates that she may need to miss work intermittently 1-2 times per month with each episode.

I was made aware of this when I underwent induction at my workplace. I also have the freedom to check my ‘timesheet’ at work. I can access my timesheet from a computer at work using my personal log in and finger scan verification. On it I can see the exact times I clocked on and off for a shift and when pay started and finished. We are not forced to check this but I like to check it for myself every 2 weeks or so just to make sure I am not being under or over payed.
