Final Report of the Ontario Changing Workplaces Review

by David Doorey May 23, 2017
written by David Doorey May 23, 2017

May 23 2017
After a very long wait, the Ontario government today released the final report of its Changing Workplaces Review that examined both the Employment Standards Act and the Labour Relations Act.
Here is the final report.
There is a lot to absorb here, and we can work through it on this law blog in the coming days and weeks.
Screen Shot 2017-05-23 at 10.38.47 AMIf you have observations and comments you would like to post here, use the Comment feature or send me an email.  I’m not interested in bald, hysterical assertions that proposed changes will destroy the economy, but thoughtful, reasoned commentary will be posted.  I will also try to link to thoughtful commentaries posted on other law blogs.
Sadly, I am in administrative meetings at York all day so won’t have much time to study the document myself today.
Best, David

The OBA should also call for removal of the lawyer exclusion in labour relations and minimum wage legislation.

The former is a clear Charter violation with roots in the 1940s and the latter is about decency, fairness and professionalism.

Miguel Mangalindan has been appointed the Vice-Chair of the OBA Labour and Employment Section 2022/2023. He plans to spearhead more CPDs and networking events that bring members together in-person safely and to collaborate with more sections to create synergies within the OBA.

Canadian jurisdictions using one-step test for assessing majority employee support (card-check) for collective bargaining rather than two-step (card-check + vote) in whole or part of workforce:

Ontario (construction only)
BC
NB
PEI
Quebec
Federal

Employer counsel apparently unhappy about return to card-check based union certification in British Columbia.

BC flips back and forth on how to test majority employee support more than any province. Hardly a revolutionary change. https://twitter.com/mdclaw/status/1529566709883207680

B.C. NDP Delivers Again on Union Wish List. Bill 10, the Labour Relations Code Amendment Act, 2022, has now passed third reading and is expected to become “law” later this week or next, when the Bill receives Royal Assent. https://bit.ly/3arUEM5
