It is important for employers to keep in mind that the words in employment contracts have meaning. Moreover, where it is the employer that has drafted the contract and sought the requested terms, in the event of a later dispute over said terms, it is likely the courts will give effect to the logical, common sense meaning of the contractual language and interpret any ambiguity in the employee’s favour.

In such a request, the burden of proof is placed squarely upon the applicant, as in Codrin v. Commissionaires Great Lakes.
