Description:

The Employment Standards Act, 2000 (ESA, 2000) sets out the rights and responsibilities of employees and employers in Ontario workplaces. The standards outlined in the ESA, 2000 represent the minimum standards that employers must provide to their employees.

The Ontario Employment Standards Act: Quick Reference, 2009 Edition focuses on the key obligations for employers under this broad piece of legislation. If your responsibilities include hiring of employees or managing and supervising, or payroll, or any duty that requires you to make decisions regarding employment policies, you can be at legal risk if you don't adhere to the Employment Standards Act, 2000. Save money, time and reduce your risk.

New to this edition:

The introduction of a new category of job-protected leave: reservist leave. Military reservists are provided with job protection while on a tour of duty either at home or abroad.
Additional commentary on who is covered by the ESA, 2000, calculation of hours of work (specifically with respect to training time), public holidays, and sale of a business.
Expanded commentary on the supervisory/managerial and information technology exemptions to overtime pay. The latter commentary is especially relevant given the recent surge of overtime class action lawsuits in Ontario and elsewhere in Canada.

This Quick Reference volume also contains the full text of the Employment Standards Act, 2000.

Price and availability subject to change. Shipping and applicable taxes extra.
