COMMERCE 2BC3 Chapter Notes - Chapter 3: Provincial Superior, Equal Protection Clause, Visible Minority
Document Summary
This creates issues for hrm because companies must comply with the laws that govern them: the consitition divides law making power and functions in canada between the fderal governments and the provinces and territories. Federal parliament deals with issues of general or national important and the provinces deal with local concerns such as property and civil rights . This emcompasses employment and labour laws such as those related to trade unions, minimum wage, hours of work, and human rights in the workplace. Enacted legislation, rgulations, and bylaws are all paramount over common law. In this resepct, legislation overrides court judgements; however courts interpret the application of law. In the end, laws must conform to the constitution. Thus if a court or judge finds a statute is unconstitutional and directs a freamework for changes, the offending legislation must then be amended or new more appropriate legislation must be enacted.
