What to Consider When Hiring Employees in Canada?

Employment

In Canada, an employee is engaged as a T4 and follows a similar process to the W2 engagement model in the US e.g hourly pay rates, bi-weekly pay schedules, eligibility for overtime.

Depending on the province and length of service most workers will typically receive 1-2 weeks of notice as a requirement but this can be longer depending on how long they were engaged. Unlike the US, there is no employment at-will in Canada which means that upon termination, provincially regulated workers are required to receive separation notice or pay-in-lieu. Federally regulated industries have different rules.

Benefits

Canada does have public healthcare available for its citizens but as an employer, can offer supplementary private medical coverage if you wish. By using Workwell Global’s Employer of Record Canada solution you can attract candidates by offering supplementary benefits plans.

Law

Canada has a federal government and 13 provincial governments. In Canada, the difference between federal law governing a worker vs provincial is based on the worker’s industry. Minimum employment standards will vary per province and this is on top of federal employment laws.
