Hi guys,
I'm a little confused about how employment in Canada works. I'm used to always signing a contract, detailing how many hours I'm going to work, what the wages are, how long the employment will last and so on (I'm from Sweden). But I started a job three weeks ago where I haven't been asked to sign anything, haven't been asked for my SIN until yesterday (when I had to text the manager to ask if I was supposed to work this week at all, since I haven't been told), haven't had anything specified in writing... Is this normal? It's supposed to be 8 hours a week in a store, I've been doing "training" for 3 weeks but haven't gotten any confirmation that I'm going to start working those 8 hours from now on.
What do you think, does this sound sketchy?
