Ontario’s Declared Emergency Has Come to an End – What Does This Mean For Employers
On July 24, 2020, the Reopening Ontario (A Flexible Response to COVID-19) Act, 2020 (“Bill 195”) came into force and Ontario’s declared emergency came to an end.
In a decision released last week, the Court of Appeal for Ontario held an employer could not rely on a valid and enforceable “without cause” provision in an employment agreement where the agreement included a “for-cause” provision that violated Ontario’s Employment Standards Act, 2000 (“ESA”).
