In most jobs with hourly wages, you clock out when you take your lunch. Therefore, it would be illegal for your employer to require you to do anything during that period of time, since working off the clock is illegal. | ||

I often speak English outside of Montreal with clerks and waitresses out of habit (my family hates me for that, but who cares) and I often correct myself back into French. I still think shit sucks, where I work, we often make fun of this very situation, and just poke fun at each other because we have a lot of French employees (from France) and even they don't understand why Quebec makes such a big deal about the language. | ||

People don't have the right to a job. People don't have to do what they're told by their employer to do. If this were happening to every job, that would be one thing. This is only happening for that one job that decided to do this. You can choose not to work there. | ||

What if there is at least one other employer who does this? Where do you draw the line? Personally, I am okay with it until 16.539 employers do it. | ||

People have the right to not be discriminated in their workplace just as they are supposed to be free of discrimination outside of the workplace. Asking your staff to follow company policy and speak a specific language when dealing with your customers is one thing. Telling them what they can do in their own time is something you can't do. | ||

So what would prevent everyone else from doing this, by your logic, then? And if everyone else did this, what would you do? | ||

Not having any workers. Terrible public opinion. Loss of sales/revenue due to bad business practice. I'm not saying it's right, I'm saying that is how it happens. | ||

If it's on their own time it's horseshit, and I agree with you completely. But if it's referring to speaking to customers, then I understand it. | ||

The whole complaint of the article though was the employee being unallowed to speak it in the break room/to other employees. Breaks are your own time. I can understand management not wanting employees talking in english infront of customers but when not dealing with it who cares? | ||

I though reference to "the floor" meant in front of customers/the selling floor of the business. | ||
