Newfoundland & Labrador Making a Complaint How do I file a complaint? If you think your boss has violated your rights under employment standards law, you can file a complaint. Contact the Labour Standards Division.
Are there time limits for filing a complaint? Yes. If you're still working for your employer, you have to file within two years of when the problem occurred.
If you're no longer working for your employer (for example, if you didn't get termination pay or were fired), you have to file within six months of the day your employment ended.
What happens after I file the complaint? Your complaint will be investigated by the Labour Standards Division. The investigator might try to resolve the problem through mediation.
If there's no resolution, a determination will be made on your complaint. If you or your boss disagree with the decision, you can file an application for review with the Labour Relations Board. You must do this within 30 days after you receive the decision.
If your boss doesn't comply with an order issued after an investigation, or an order by the Labour Relations Board, the matter can be taken to the Provincial Court and the judge can order compliance. This order can be enforced as if it were a judgment of the Supreme Court. |
