“Employment Law for Business and Human Resources Professionals, Revised Fourth Edition” delves into the statutory and common law principles governing the employer-employee relationship. It covers essential topics for HR professionals, such as workplace harassment, mental stress management, precarious employment, minimum wage increases, and provisions for “equal pay for equal work.” The text effectively ties legal discussions to real-world scenarios, highlighting how employment law and societal elements intersect through income distribution, the role of work in personal identity, and various social policy issues. Each concept is reinforced through numerous case studies, equipping readers with a comprehensive understanding of employment law. This knowledge enables them to reduce risks and liabilities, grasp the implications of their actions, and determine when to seek legal counsel. The revised 4th Edition incorporates the latest changes stemming from the amendments in Bill 47 (Making Ontario Open for Business Act, 2018) to Bill 148 (Fair Workplaces, Better Jobs Act, 2017), which significantly altered Ontario’s Employment Standards Act, 2000 (ESA). While Bill 148 was enacted by the previous Ontario Liberal government, many of its provisions have been revoked by the amendments introduced in Bill 47, effective January 1, 2019. Chapter 7 has undergone a thorough rewrite to incorporate these changes, which also resonate throughout several other chapters, alongside amendments introduced by Bill 66 (Restoring Ontario’s Competitiveness Act, 2019), effective April 3, 2019.
