Province invites you to talk about the rules at work
Consultations begin today regarding the Employment Standards Code, which sets minimum standards for hours of work, overtime, minimum wage, general holidays, special leaves, rules for employing young workers, termination pay, and more.
A discussion guide and survey is available online where Albertans can provide feedback on an initial series of questions and offer comments on any other employment standards topic.
“We want to hear what Albertans think about the laws that govern their workplaces. The world of work has changed a great deal and it’s time to see where improvements can be made for the future. I encourage Albertans to read the Talking about Work discussion guide and complete the online survey, or send us their input.”
– Thomas Lukaszuk, Minister of Jobs, Skills, Training and Labour
