====Option 2. Complain to the Employment Standards Branch====
If your employer didn’t follow the ;;[http://canlii.ca/t/8405 Employment Standards Act]'', you can '''make a complaint''' to the Employment Standards Branch, the government office that administers that Act. It covers some situations that can also bring the ''Human Rights Code'' into play. For example, under the ''Employment Standards Act'', an employer cannot fire you because you are pregnant. The Employment Standards Branch has different powers than does the Human Rights Tribunal. See our information on [[If You're Fired - Wrongful Dismissal (Script 241)|if you are fired (no. 241)]] for more details on making a complaint to the Branch.
