I guess I wasn’t sure what subreddit to ask this in, but essentially it’s just what the title says.
My employer sent out an email last night showing us how to set up a hotspot to connect to the POS to process sales if our internet goes down (apparently it’s been happening a lot in many stores?). They said this is so we “don’t inconvenience the customer”. They said that we would still be able to expense any data overages, but it doesn’t feel right.
We had a meeting about it today and I got too nervous to say anything, but is this legal as per Canadian labour laws? I really don’t feel comfortable using my personal phone (which they do not pay for) to process customer sales on the POS. Not to mention isn’t this a huge security risk since hot spots are not secure at all? It wasn’t clear if this was meant to be a mandatory policy or just merely a suggestion.
I hope someone is able to help me out, as I was thinking of sending an email with my concerns.
Thanks guys!!
