Question: Is it ethical for an employer to lease an employee to an agency without the employee's knowledge or consent? These agents take on the employee's risk liability for a fee, and the employer is held harmless should any worker compensation issues arise. Specific example: Employer suspects a dangerous working condition, say, an electrical problem in the employee's environment. Unable to afford the repair, he leases the employee's liability insurance to a third party, and remains silent. Employee is oblivious to the employer's worry over their safety, and possible liability . Shouldn't an employee be given the opportunity to make his/her own choice? Thoughts? | ||||
