Oh yeah and they get can punch-clocks too! They can strap it to a horse's ass so their employees can clock in and out as needed in order to determine the hours they work.

So the actual WCB doesnt mean jack, its just about formalizing the employment relationship.

What garbage. I mean, a small farming operation shouldnt be held to the same employment standards as some corporate firm, thats insane. There are costs and inconveniences to that especially as small farms have people come and go all the time, it would be grossly inefficient and even worse, it would be grossly inefficient for absolutely no good reason.

I do like how you've wrapped the real reason in the warm, loving embrace of 'caring for people hurt by farm work.'
What? How are all of these other small family businesses able to follow such regulations?

You know what businesses do if they can't make time for admin activities? Cause you should considering it's people like you that they hire to do it.
