Ottawa Employment Lawyer Alex Lucifero discusses an employee's right to walk off the job or refuse to work due to COVID-19 fears in the workplace. He touches on employee's right to refuse unsafe work due to COVID-19 (coronavirus) in Canada after Ontario Premier Doug Ford said that "if the workplace, the construction site, is not safe, you can walk off the job."
