Remote work arrangements continue to shape the modern workplace, but a recent BC Court of Appeal decision highlights the importance of clearly managing changes to employment terms.

In Cressey Construction Corporation v. Parolin, the court found that requiring an employee to return to the office full-time without reasonable notice could amount to constructive dismissal when working from home had become an established term of employment.

Employers and employees should understand how workplace changes, communication, and expectations can impact employment relationships.

Learn how Cressey Construction v. Parolin confirms that remote work can become an enforceable employment term and why return-to-office mandates may constitute constructive dismissal.
