As a Human Resources practitioner I often find it time-consuming to research information I require. The purpose of the URHR website is to provide a brief summary of Human Resources legislation and practices as well as some internet links to government and other resources.
This website is designed for small, non-unionized, provincially-regulated businesses in the Province of Ontario. Other Canadian provinces and territories have similar legislation, but there are differences among the jurisdictions.
The Government of Canada defines companies that are federally regulated and covered by the Canada Labour Code ( http://laws-lois.justice.gc.ca/eng/acts/L-2/ ). A business not covered by the Canada Labour Code would be provincially regulated and subject to provincial legislation.
While some provincial legislation applies to all businesses within the jurisdiction, other provincial legislation applies to certain businesses only, depending on factors such as the number of employees.
You are always encouraged to seek professional/legal advice.
