An employee who wrote to Ask a Manager about their boss bringing her sick child to work says the situation escalated: the boss continued to break rules around workplace safety during a renovation, became hostile towards her employee and used them as a “release valve”. The author claims the result was that they resigned and cited unsafe working conditions and filed a complaint with the labour board. Another update concerns an employee who wanted their role expanded but didn't have the appropriate qualifications. Following feedback from HR, the employee dropped the idea and became reinstated after engaging with their job. Meanwhile another letter writer who was concerned that the reporting structure at their workplace was not fit for purpose reports they have taken a job at a private company that better suits their skillset.
