I live in Canada. The cultural code of work is try to extract the most out of your employer as possible for the least amount of production possible.
But I was an employer for for 15 years so admittedly somewhat biased.
Sounds like Canadians have the right priorities, haha.
As an employer, how did you prevent your business from being “exploited”?

We had a lot of staff turnover over the years. It’s a pain in and ass and expensive but best for the long term health of the business. Regardless of having the right priorities if employees routinely produce less economic value than they are paid by the business eventually the business will fail. Excluding government workers of course. They can extract more than they produce in perpetuity.
