Category: Antiwork

I’ve recently got covid, im situated in NY. Was just told that they stopped paying covid pay here, is this the truth or am I being made a fool by my boss…

The company I work for posted an entry level job at a higher salary than I currently make. I was hired for the same role 2 years ago, and the job was posted for 3k more annually than I am making currently. I have a review coming up next month and I was planning on asking for a raise, but I did the math, and if I had been hired at the new salary being offered, and my raises were the same value as the ones I got, I would be making 36% more than I currently do. I’m very young and still learning how to ask for things in the workplace and I have no idea how to swing this so I can be compensated fairly.

The HR lead at my job sent me an email saying “salary information is confidential so you should not be discussing with others.” I’m in Ontario, Canada. This goes against the Employment Standards Act, correct? Can’t believe they put this in writing.
