How does the Unfair Labour Practices Act view journalists as employees

Does the Unfair Labour Practices Act consider journalists as employees and why?
  • The Unfair Labour Practices Act does consider journalists as employees.
  • Journalists are recognized as employees under the Act because they typically meet the criteria to be classified as employees.
  • This includes factors such as working for a media organization on a regular basis, receiving compensation for their work, and having their work directed or supervised by the employer.
  • Classification as employees provides journalists with certain rights and protections under the Act, such as the right to fair wages, benefits, and working conditions.
  • By recognizing journalists as employees, the Act aims to ensure that they are not vulnerable to unfair labour practices and are afforded the necessary legal protections in the workplace.
