May 22, 2019 – Quebec has tabled a draft regulation to
establish a mandatory licence system aimed at personnel placement
agencies and recruitment agencies for
Temporary Foreign Workers (TFWs).
The legislation is designed to improve protection of TFWs
working in the French-speaking province.
The licence, which will require payment of a $1,780 fee, will be
issued by the province's Committee on Standards, Equity, Health
and Work Safety.
Quebec's decision to introduce a licencing system follows a
similar move in British Columbia earlier in 2019.
