一名来自印度的工人声称自己支付了2.5万元“买职位”,并在卑诗省列治文一家卡车维修公司工作期间遭遇薪资克扣。卑诗就业标准仲裁机构(B.C. Employment Standards Tribunal)现在裁定该工人获赔总计115,574.69元。

裁决指出,这笔赔偿包括公司拖欠他的工资、法定假期工资、年假工资以及利息。此外,公司还因违反《就业标准法》被处以额外的罚款。

案件背景:签证赴加、亲戚牵线、“花钱买工”

根据仲裁专员Shannon Corregan长达70页的裁定书,投诉人辛格(Harminder Singh)于2018年3月持访客签证抵达加拿大。

希望留在加拿大后,辛格经表亲介绍,认识了AJ Boyal Truck Repair Ltd.的唯一董事博亚尔(Sarvpreet Boyal)。

公司当时拥有一份劳动力市场影响评估(LMIA),可以雇佣外籍卡车维修技工。

辛格与公司签署了雇佣合同,随后回印度一个月,在返回加拿大入境时获得了工作许可,并于2018年7月正式上岗,工作至2019年10月离职。

他指控称,博亚尔要求他支付2.5万加元以换取该职位:其中1万加元以现金支付,其余1.5万加元由表亲开出的支票支付给博亚尔的朋友。

按加拿大《就业标准法》,雇主不得直接或间接向求职者收取任何形式的工作费用。

雇主证词不可信,仲裁人更相信辛格

在裁决中,仲裁官认定,雇主博亚尔及其律师的证词存在大量前后矛盾,缺乏可信度。证词被形容为“阻挠调查”,“不专业”,及“前后不一”。

博亚尔在关键问题上“频繁修改说法”,并与其公司提供的文书相互矛盾。

在工时争议方面,双方各执一词,互指对方伪造记录。代表辛格律师、移民工人中心(Migrant Workers Centre)法律主任布劳恩(Jonathon Braun)提交了一名文书鉴定专家的认定书,认为博亚尔所称的“员工打卡登记簿”上记录的签名,并非辛格亲笔签署;所有条目“皆由同一人书写,而非多位员工”。

最终,仲裁机构采信辛格的说法。

虽然辛格提出曾支付2.5万加元“买工作”,但仲裁机构只认定其中1.5万加元在仲裁追溯期内有效,其余1万现金未纳入计算。

赔偿的细节如下:

  • 拖欠工资:$24,032.13

  • 加班费:$44,256.24

  • 法定假期工资:$2,505.76

  • 年假工资:$4,585.38

  • 服务期赔偿:$2,300.42

  • 非法收取工作费用返还:$15,000

  • 应计利息:$22,894.76

  • 行政罚款(共8项违规):$4,000

此外,该案早在2023年已由就业标准仲裁机构初次审理,当时公司仅被判赔$3,149.39工资与$2,000罚款。但辛格不服,2024年成功上诉,案件得以重新审理,最终获得大额胜诉。

针对这起案例,网友表示,“为辛格感到高兴。整个移民乱象中,真正的罪魁祸首是那些欺诈性的雇主,他们目前所受到的宽容待遇远远不该有。”

也有网友认为,“欺诈性雇主确实是个问题,但那些愿意违法来加拿大的外国工人同样也有责任。作为临时外劳(TFW),你本就不该为LMIA付费,原因之一就是这会让你陷入对雇主的依附关系,特别是那种愿意违法操作的雇主。”
