The Canada Policy Manual glossary defines over forty Canadian employment law terms — from accommodation, at-will employment (which does not exist in Canada), bereavement leave, the Canada Labour Code, collective agreements, constructive dismissal, and the duty to accommodate, through electronic monitoring, employment standards, just cause, minimum wage, occupational health and safety, parental leave, the Record of Employment, severance pay, statutory holidays, and wrongful dismissal.
Each definition is written in plain language and is intended as a research aid for HR professionals and business owners. It is not legal advice; for advice on a specific situation, consult a qualified professional.
