Independent Contractors: Ontario Labour Minister on Misclassification

View descriptionShare

Ontario Labour Minister Kevin Flynn joined Employment Lawyer Lior Samfiru on The Employment Hour to talk about Bill 148 (aka Fair Workplaces, Better Jobs Act, 2017) and the changes coming to the Employment Standards Act and workplaces on January 1st, 2018.

Employers who misclassify employees as independent contractors will be penalized, with fines as high as $500,000. This misclassification happens quite often. How will the Ministry of Labour help employers ensure that their employees are not misclassified?
