List of Federally Regulated Employers and Workplaces in Canada (2025 Guide)

Only about 6% of employees in Canada work in federally regulated industries. These employees aren’t covered by provincial laws — instead, they’re protected by the Canada Labour Code (CLC).
This guide explains what a federally regulated workplace is, which industries fall under federal jurisdiction, and provides a current list of employers regulated by federal law.
What Is a Federally Regulated Workplace in Canada?
A federally regulated workplace is governed by Canada’s federal laws, primarily the CLC. This law sets out the rights and obligations for employees and employers in industries under federal jurisdiction, including rules about wages, hours of work, health and safety, vacations, and severance pay.
How Many Canadians Work in Federally Regulated Industries?
Roughly 6% of the workforce in Canada is federally regulated. The majority of employees in Canada fall under provincial legislation – such as Ontario’s Employment Standards Act or Alberta’s Employment Standards Code.
Federally regulated employees typically work in the following sectors:
- Banking (e.g., TD Bank, RBC)
- Air transportation and airports (e.g., Air Canada, WestJet)
- Telecommunications and broadcasting (e.g., Rogers, Bell Media)
- Railways and trucking that crosses provincial or national borders
- Marine shipping, ports, and ferries
- Postal and courier services (e.g., Canada Post, Purolator)
- Federal Crown corporations and First Nations band councils
How Do I Know If My Employer Is Federally Regulated?
If your job involves interprovincial or international operations, or your employer is in one of the federally listed industries, you’re likely covered by the Canada Labour Code. A helpful indicator is whether your employer appears on the Legislated Employment Equity Program (LEEP) list, which tracks federally regulated companies with 100 or more employees.
You can also check our guide to severance for federally regulated employees or speak with one of our employment lawyers to confirm your rights.
