The Special Advisors to the Changing Workplaces Review have released a 419-page Final Report. A Summary Report has also been issued.
The Report, which proposes amendments to Ontario’s Employment Standards Act, 2000 and Labour Relations Act, 1995, contains 173 recommendations.
In 2015 Minister of Labour Kevin Flynn initiated the Changing Workplaces Review by appointing C. Michael Mitchell and John C. Murray as Special Advisors to lead the largest review of Ontario’s labour laws conducted within decades and report back to the Minister. The review was to consider issues brought about in part by the growth of precarious employment.
The Review’s first phase of public consultation involved 12 sessions held across Ontario that heard over 200 presentations and received over 300 written submissions.
An Interim Report was issued in July 2016 containing approximately 50 issues and over 225 options for further consultation.
The Changing Work Place Review Final Report.
We need to continue lobbying MPP’s. Many of you have done so already and many have at least called the MPP’s constituency offices to voice your concerns.
Please keep up the good work and thank you!
