“Employment Law for Business and Human Resources Professionals, Revised Fourth Edition” explores the legal rules that define the relationship between employers and employees. This includes both laws written by legislatures and laws developed by courts. For HR professionals, it discusses critical topics like dealing with harassment in the workplace, managing employee mental stress, understanding insecure job situations, the impact of rising minimum wage, and the principle of equal pay for the same job. The book connects legal concepts to real-life situations, showing how employment law is linked to society. It explores topics like how income is distributed, the importance of work in shaping who we are, and different social policies. To ensure understanding, each legal concept is explained with multiple case studies, giving readers a solid grasp of employment law. With this knowledge, they can lower risks and legal problems, understand the consequences of their decisions, and know when it’s necessary to get advice from a lawyer. This updated 4th Edition includes the most recent changes from Bill 47 (called the ‘Making Ontario Open for Business Act’ of 2018) and Bill 148 (called the ‘Fair Workplaces, Better Jobs Act’ of 2017). These bills made big changes to Ontario’s Employment Standards Act, 2000 (ESA). Bill 148 was passed by the previous government in Ontario, but many parts of it have been cancelled out by Bill 47, which became effective on January 1, 2019. Chapter 7 has been completely rewritten to include these changes. These changes also affect other chapters. The book also includes updates from Bill 66 (called the ‘Restoring Ontario’s Competitiveness Act’ of 2019), which took effect on April 3, 2019.
