The arbitrator found it was unreasonable to extend it to staff who worked “exclusively remotely” with no prospect of going to the office.

The Canadian government did the right thing with the restrictions

Why? They were remote workers

[–] Beaver 6 points 9 months ago (3 children)

Because they will come in contact with people outside of work. We need to protect the vulnerable as much as possible.

I would say that's not Canada Post's responsibility.

I could also argue it’s the workplace’s responsibility to keep their workers safe.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but that responsibility is limited to during working hours and/or inside the workplace. (And to be clear, I'm referring to their employer, Canada Post, not the Canadian Government, who does have the right to enforce similar mandates in a Public Health Emergencies like the one we just had)
