On October 23, the Ontario government announced its much-anticipated legislation on employment and labour law matters. The legislation, dubbed the Making Ontario Open for Business Act, 2018 (Bill 47), will remove or modify many of the obligations placed on Ontario employers by the Fair Workplaces, Better Jobs Act, 2017 (Bill 148). Please see the summary below for an overview of the changes to the Employment Standards Act, 2000 and the table that follows for a more thorough review.

Bill 47 will repeal the right of employees to have their rate of pay reviewed by employers. Additionally, employers will no longer be required to provide a written response with reasons if an employee does request a review of his or her rate of pay.
