Can an employer significantly change your job duties while you are on parental leave?
Pursuant to the Employment Standards Act, in most cases, an employee who takes pregnancy/parental leave is entitled to return to the same role or a comparable role the employee had before the leave began, or a comparable role if the employee’s former position no longer exists.
If an employee experiences significant changes to the terms of their employment, then they may be entitled to bring a claim for constructive dismissal.
Has your role been improperly changed following a parental leave?
