980 CFPL – Fair Workplaces, Better Jobs, Little Impact
On November 22, 2017, the Ontario government passed Bill 148, Fair Workplaces, Better Jobs Act, 2017. This legislation brings significant changes to the Employment Standards Act, 2000 (ESA), which is the law that governs most workplaces in Ontario. Many of these changes take effect on January 1, 2018. Other changes will occur on April 1, 2018.
But will all of the legislated changes have a positive affect on Ontario workplaces?
Jon Pinkus joined Global News Radio 980 CFPL to highlight the reasons why Ontario’s “Fair Workplaces, Better Jobs Act” may end up having little impact on certain areas of employment law.
