Although Canadian employers that provide essential services have remained open since the first days of the COVID-19 pandemic, other employers were required to close their physical operations. Despite this, the nature of the services provided by some non-essential employers enabled them to have their employees work from home. In fact, the nature of the services provided by some “essential service†employers enabled them to also do so. When work from home was not possible due to the employee’s position, or the employer did not require its employees to work from home, many “non-essential service†employers laid their employees off on a temporary basis.
