Get ready to dive into the ins and outs of Ontario’s Employment Standards Act in recruitment during this engaging live session! Since 2021, the Government of Ontario has passed several iterations of its Working for Workers legislation, each of which has amended important employment-related statutes like the Employment Standards Act (ESA) and the Occupational Health and Safety Act. Notably, the Working for Workers Four Act, 2024 and the Working for Workers Five Act, 2024 both created new legal requirements under the ESA in respect of the recruitment process. With these new requirements set to come into effect on January 1, 2026, it’s crucial that employers act proactively in the coming weeks and months to ensure that they properly understand the scope of their new statutory obligations and adequately prepare for compliance. Join Jake Tolton in an informative webinar that will cover topics including: -- The scope of the new requirements, which touch specifically on publicly advertised job postings and related application forms, post-interview communication with interviewees and record retention. -- Areas of potential concern or ambiguity that employers should be aware of in preparing for compliance. -- Practical tips and suggested steps for ensuring compliance with the new requirements as of January 1, 2026.
