In Box 10.1 in the textbook, there is a discussion of the fact that the employment relationship is usually characterized by an inequality of power and employee vulnerability. The employer usually has the power to set the terms of employment and present them to the employee as a take it or leave it proposition. Drawing on course materials considered so far in the course, discuss in a short essay whether a concern by judges about employee vulnerability and inequality of bargaining power in the employment relationship has influenced the development of the common law of the employment contract. Your response should be between 500-700 words, which is not long, so be concise in your writing. There is no right or wrong answer. You should look for examples in the materials that potentially raise the issues of employee vulnerability and/or inequality of bargaining power and consider if and how those issues may have influenced judges approach to the cases that come before them. You will be graded based on your ability to respond to the question by drawing on examples from the materials (75%) as well as the quality of your presentation (organization, writing quality) (25%). Format External research is not required. Use only materials from the textbook and include a reference to page numbers in the text if you cite a case or other material in the book (i.e. Textbook, p. 67). You should not be including a bibliography because you are using only the textbook. All responses will be put through Turnitin software, so make sure that the answer is in your own words and is original. I do NOT want to see material cut and paste from Internet searches.
