Under the Employment Standards Act, 2000 (ESA), employers can need an employee to provide proof reasonable in the scenarios that they are entitled to sick leave under the ESA.

Effective October 28, 2024, companies can not require staff members to offer a certificate from a competent health professional (a medical note). A “competent health practitioner” is an individual who is qualified to practice as a physician, signed up nurse or psychologist under the laws of the jurisdiction in which care or treatment is supplied to the employee.

ESA optimum fines

A prosecution may be begun under Part III of the Provincial Offences Act where a person is believed to have actually devoted an offense under the ESA. If convicted, a person might be based on a fine or a term of imprisonment or both.

As of October 28, 2024, the maximum fine for people convicted of contravening the ESA has increased to $100,000 (up from $50,000).

Definition of staff member

The Employment Standards Act (ESA) specifies an employee to consist of an individual who:

– carries out work for an employer for salaries

– products services to a company for salaries

– gets training from an employer, if the skill they’re being trained on is an ability utilized by the company’s employees

– is a homeworker

– was an employee

On March 21, 2024, the significance of “training” was broadened to include work performed throughout a trial duration. A staff member now includes an individual who performs work throughout a trial period for a company, if the skills being examined during the trial duration are skills used by the employer’s staff members or might be utilized by employees if there are no other employees. This means the hours worked during the trial duration need to be counted as work time. Learn more about what counts as work time.

Deductions from wages

The ESA restricts companies from making deductions from salaries when the company had a cash shortage, lost home or had actually residential or commercial property taken and an individual other than the staff member had access to the cash or job residential or commercial property.

On March 21, 2024, the ESA was modified to verify that this includes deductions from incomes in “dine and dash”, “gas and dash” and other similar situations.

Payment of earnings – direct deposit

The ESA requires employers to pay incomes by money, cheque or direct deposit. If the wages are paid by direct deposit, the account needs to remain in the worker’s name and nobody besides the employee can have access to the account, unless the staff member has actually licensed it.

Effective June 21, 2024, an extra requirement will remain in location if the employer desires to pay incomes by direct deposit: the account needs to be chosen by the employee. This means the staff member must decide which account to utilize and the company can not limit an employee’s area by, for example, needing the staff member to use an account at a specific monetary organization.

For payments that are to be made after June 20, 2024, an employee can select the account where their wages are to be deposited. If a company previously limited a worker’s account selection – for instance, by requiring them to utilize an account at a specific banks – it is the company’s obligation to verify the staff member’s choice of their desired account before they make the next payment after June 20, 2024. A worker can likewise notify their company that they desire their earnings deposited to a various account and, when that occurs, the company needs to make the change.

Vacation pay contracts

The ESA permits a company to pay holiday pay to a worker on every pay cheque as it builds up or at any agreed-upon time, but only with the contract of the worker. Discover more about when to pay getaway pay.

Effective June 21, 2024, the ESA is to clarify that the employee must make a contract with the employer in order for the company to be able to pay vacation pay on every pay cheque or at an agreed-upon time. This validates that such contracts can not be spoken and need to be made in writing (consisting of electronically), constant with how the ministry implements the ESA.

Tips or other gratuities – methods of payment

Beginning June 21, 2024, employers will be needed to pay suggestions or other gratuities by either:

– money

– cheque

– direct deposit

If payment is by money or cheque, the worker must be paid the tips or other gratuities at the workplace or at some other place consented to digitally or in writing by the staff member.

If payment is made by direct deposit, the account must be selected by the staff member and remain in the employee’s name. Nobody other than the worker can have access to the account, unless the worker has actually licensed it.

The requirement that the staff member select the account suggests the employee should choose which account to use, and the employer can not restrict a staff member’s choice by, for instance, requiring the staff member to use an account at a specific banks.

For payments that are to be made after June 20, 2024, an employee can select the account where their tips are to be deposited. If a company previously limited a staff member’s account choice – for job instance, by needing them to use an account at a particular banks – it is the company’s responsibility to confirm the worker’s choice of their desired account before they make the next payment after June 20, 2024. A staff member can also alert their company that they want their ideas transferred to a different account and, job when that takes place, the employer must make the modification.

The requirement to post a policy does not require an employer to develop a policy. It uses if a company has a written policy in location or if a company has a recognized practice of sharing in a pointer pool that is regularly applied (even if it’s not documented). If the employer has an unwritten but established, consistently-applied practice in place, the company must put the policy in composing and publish a copy of the policy.

The ESA does not specify the info that needs to appear in the policy, as long as the posted document is a real copy of the policy that is in location and clearly states that the company or a director or shareholder of the employer shares in the tip swimming pool.

Effective, June 21, 2024, companies will also be needed to keep a copy of every suggestions sharing policy that is required to be published for 3 years after the policy stops being in result.
