Traumatic Experience! Beware
I regret why I applied for this company. I was called for an interview couple of weeks ago and I was hired instantly but never I was asked about my extensive experience and my background. I was given job offer for $13.75 with no medical or dental benefits, No vacation, no sick days, No WSIB or CPP or EI
I suggest that applicants just go try applying other companies like St. Elizabeth or PT Health or Hospitals as they offer sick days, vacation, medical & dental after few months. Going for an interview was surely waste of time. I just thought that things change after so many years that they will pay competitively, unfortunately they are still out there to abuse people looking for job. They are abusive and do not care. they even ask you to pay a $1,000 as a bond for 1 year that if you leave before 1 year, you have to pay this back to the PT. Who would even come up with this?
People who will apply for this job are people from foreign country who just came to Canada who doesn't have an idea what is employment all about and the proper way to get paid. The bad part is, they don't file taxes from you. You have to file your own taxes are they will not take you as their 'employee" for them to get away from giving you benefits, you have to be considered as SELF EMPLOYED or CONTRACTOR. then this way they do not have responsibility to you and you will not have any benefits and file your own taxes with CRA. Achieva is out there to abuse new immigrants and people that are not fully aware of labour laws.
