I'm not sure where this started, but it looks to me like both

Let's go for a middle ground here, hey? Something like 'companies
are entitled to have trustworthy employees, and employees are entitled
to have trustworthy companies'
And maybe then start arguing about what to do when an employee/company
proves untrustworthy.

qualifies the person as no longer a stranger. My parents run a small
business - it's HARD, bringing in a new staff member.

New Zealand is hardly a country with lax labour laws!
