Ontario Launches Consultation on Forthcoming Job Posting Rules
September 12, 2024 | Sherrard Kuzz LLP
The Government of Ontario has launched a public consultation on job posting rules under the Ontario Employment Standards Act. Some of these rules were introduced in the recently passed Working for Workers Four Act, but have not yet been declared in force. Others are proposed in Working for Workers Five Act. When in force, an employer will be required to do the following with respect to a publicly advertised job posting:
- Disclose the expected compensation or range of compensation.
- Disclose the use of artificial intelligence (“AI”).
- Disclose whether a posting is for an existing vacancy.
- Provide follow up information to an applicant who has been interviewed.
- Not require Canadian experience.
