Techinically, no, assuming your working in Ontario (laws may differ province to province.) Your current "contract" with the organization pays you an hourly wage, in order to 'modify' your current pay structure, the company needs to provide you notice of these changes. They are allowed to pay you however they like, as long as they provide sufficient notice according to the Employment Standards Act. If they do not not provide the notice, that is consifered Construcive Dismissal (Forcing you to quit) and you can sue for damages. The notice is to give you time to consider accepting the new offer from the compeny, if you do not approve after the notice period, you have the right to quit without penaly.
