Am I protected under the Act respecting labour standards if my employer sends me to work outside Quebec?
Yes. The Act respecting labour standards applies to the employee wherever he completes his work. If the employer has a business, a headquarters, factory, place of business or office in Quebec, he must respect whats in the Act. If you usually work in Quebec and your employer sends you to work abroad, he cannot deprive you of the protections under Quebecs Act respecting labour standards, even though you are working in another country.
