1. Conditions of Employment

The terms and conditions of your employment are outlined below. This employment contract will be governed by established Well-Mart policies and procedures, and in accordance with all applicable employment laws in the province of Ontario, except where you and the employer have agreed, either electronically or in writing, to waive specific entitlements imposed by the legislation.

This contract may be modified or changed in whole or in part, but all such changes or modifications must be agreed to and shall not take effect until they are in writing and signed by both parties.

2. Probationary Period

This employment contract is subject to a three-month probationary period from your date of hire, during which time the employer may, in its discretion, terminate your employment without any notice or pay in lieu of notice.

3. Payment of Wages

Your annual salary for this position is $56,000. All wages will be paid on the 1st and the 15th of each month and will be deposited directly into your bank account.

You will be entitled to two weeks' vacation time with 4% vacation pay after the completion of 12 months of employment. Vacation time may be taken at a time agreed upon by the employer. After five years of employment, your vacation entitlement will increase to three weeks' vacation time at 6% pay.

6. Accommodation

Should any accommodation be required by you in order to make your job accessible due to disability, such as documents in digital form or real-time captioning at meetings, workstation accommodations such as a raised deck, or automatic doors or accessible washrooms, you are responsible for initiating such arrangements and any related cost.

7. Termination

Following completion of the probationary period, the employer may terminate your employment under this agreement for any reason, without cause, upon providing you with notice of termination as set out in the applicable legislation, or provide pay in lieu of notice, plus all other payments or entitlements to which you are entitled under the applicable Ontario statute.

Should you terminate your employment, you are required to provide the employer with a minimum of five (5) working days advance notice in writing, in accordance with applicable legislation.

Please indicate your agreement to these terms by signing below and returning the original to the store manager at your earliest convenience.

We look forward to you joining the staff of Well-Mart and to a mutually rewarding working relationship.

Sincerely,

Louise Belcher Store Manager
