In this podcast, Perry Yung, Shir Fulga, and Erin Schacter discuss the Nova Scotia decision in Gentleman v. Kings (County), which addressed whether an individual was entitled to protection from a collective bargaining agreement, though their offer of employment was rescinded before the first day of employment. The speakers provide practical pointers, including the importance for employers to recognize the moment an offer for a unionized position is accepted, the employment relationship and all the rights and obligations under the collective agreement may begin.
