Introduction

Hello everyone,

I’m Ginny, and I’m a fourth-year Life Sciences student who is really looking forward to graduating next year! As for some basic information about me, I grew up in Vancouver; the freezing cold and dry winters here in Ontario were quite a surprise to me, even though I was warned…multiple times. Nevertheless, I loved my experience here at Queen’s, and I’ve eventually gotten used to my big red parka that feels like an insulating barrier against the icy air.

I’ve taken mostly science courses the past couple of years, so I wanted to branch out and take courses in subjects that are not within my comfort zone. I decided to enroll in this course because I wanted to learn the basics of employment law, and how the law acts to protect my interests in an employee-employer relationship. I also think it is beneficial to understand the law from the employer’s point of view as there are always two sides to an equation. I’m interested in Module 3: Human Rights in the Workplace, but the first two modules have been intriguing as well.

Thank you for reading my post!

All the Best,

Ginny
