On February 25, 2022, the Ontario Legislature introduced Bill
88, Working for Workers Act, 2022. We discussed Bill
88's proposed amendments to the Employment Standards Act,
2000, S.O. 2000, c. 41, and the Occupational Health and
Safety Act, R.S.O. 1990, c. O.1, in a previous update.
Schedule 3 of the Bill proposes amendments to the Fair
Access to Regulated Professions and Compulsory Trades Act,
2006, S.O. 2006, c. 31 (the
"Act"). The aim of the proposed amendments is to
facilitate the movement of skilled workers into Ontario by
providing workers and employers with clarity and transparency on
registration timelines.
