Matched Legal Cases: ['art 1', 'art 1', 'art 1', 'art 3', 'art 4', 'art 3', 'art 4']

Canada Gazette, Part 1, Volume 153, Number 34: Administrative Monetary Penalties Regulations (Canada Labour Code)
Canada Gazette, Part I, Volume 153, Number 34: Administrative Monetary Penalties Regulations (Canada Labour Code)
Currently, non-compliance with Part II and Part III of the Canada Labour Code (the Code) is widespread. From April 2013 to March 2016, the following instances of non-compliance were identified:
Part II — about 22 500 violations were identified regarding approximately 1 700 employers, with about 35% being repeat offenders. Further, only 30% of serious and 42% of non-serious hazardous occurrences were reported on time. In addition to creating occupational health and safety risks, this situation could result in non-compliant employers gaining a competitive advantage over law-abiding employers and increasing their profits at their employees’ expense, in addition to impeding the conduct of investigations.
Part III — about 7 400 violations were identified regarding approximately 2 270 employers, with about 23% being repeat offenders, which took multiple interventions to bring into compliance.
Existing enforcement measures available under the Code include notices of voluntary compliance (NoVs), directions and orders, but they are not sufficient in all cases to promote ongoing compliance. At the same time, the prosecution of offences is reserved for more serious cases. Administrative monetary penalties (AMPs) offer an alternative measure for promoting compliance in cases that do not warrant a prosecution. Following recent statutory amendments, authority for AMPs to be applied to violations of Part II and Part III provisions has been created under the new Part IV of the Code, but the adoption of regulations is needed to implement these provisions. Regulations are also required to implement provisions in Part IV that allow the Minister of Labour to publicly name employers who have committed offences or violations under Part II and Part III of the Code or the related regulations.
The Code consolidates statutory provisions regarding industrial relations (Part I), occupational health and safety (Part II) and labour standards (Part III), which regulate a variety of employment issues in industries that fall within the federal jurisdiction. This includes employers and employees in federal Crown corporations (e.g. Canada Post) and several private-sector industries, such as
industries declared by Parliament to be for the general advantage of Canada or of two or more provinces, such as grain handling and uranium mining; and
certain sectors of First Nations services.
The application of Part II of the Code also extends to the federal public service.
Part II and Part III of the Code are currently enforced through a variety of measures, including AVCs, directions, payment orders, compliance orders footnote 1 and prosecution. These enforcement measures are largely intended to stop non-compliance, but may not always effectively encourage compliance or deter future non-compliance. AVCs, directions and orders may not be sufficient to promote ongoing compliance, while prosecution is reserved for more serious cases where public interest is at stake.
The Budget Implementation Act, 2017, No. 1 , which received royal assent on June 22, 2017, includes provisions to amend Parts I, II and III of the Code and enact a new Part IV, which provides for AMPs and the naming of non-compliant employers as additional compliance and enforcement measures. Part IV, which is not yet in force, also sets out review and appeal procedures for the new AMPs regime. Included in these provisions are authorities for the Governor in Council to make regulations designating which violations of Part II and Part III may be enforced by means of an AMP, specifying the method of determining the amount of an AMP and setting out other procedural details of the AMPs regime, such as how documents will be served.
The objective of the proposed Administrative Monetary Penalties Regulations (Canada Labour Code) [the proposed Regulations] is to implement an AMPs regime and public naming as new compliance and enforcement measures under the Code. Labour Program officials will have new tools to help achieve higher levels of compliance with federal labour legislation and, as a result, improve working conditions for workers under federal jurisdiction.
(a) Designation of violations
The proposed Regulations would designate violations under Part II and Part III of the Code and regulations made under each of these Parts. Only designated violations can be subject to an AMP. Designated violations — listed in schedules to the proposed Regulations — include
contraventions of specified provisions of the Code and regulations;
failures to comply with specified conditions of a permit.
Most contraventions under Part II and Part III of the Code and their associated regulations would be designated as a violation, meaning that AMPs would be available to enforce a wide spectrum of violations.
(b) Method used to determine the amount of an AMP
The proposed Regulations would specify the method of determining the amount of an AMP in a given situation. The baseline penalty amount applicable to a violation varies depending on the type of violation and the category of the violator. Each designated violation is classified as either Type A, B, C, D or E, in increasing severity, according to the significance of the violation.
Table 1: Classification method for violations under the Code
Related to administrative and technical provisions.
Related to low-risk hazards that may result in a minor injury or illness that requires medical treatment but that do not result in disabling injuries.
Related to the calculation and payment of wages.
Related to medium-risk hazards that may result in a serious injury or illness that prevents an employee from effectively performing their regular work duties.
Related to leave or other requirements, which could have an impact on financial security, or health and safety, of an individual or group of individuals.
Related to high-risk hazards that may result in serious injury or fatality.
Related to the employment and protection of employees under 17 years of age.
Involves immediate life-threatening hazards or hazards known to cause latent occupational disease. These hazards give the employee little to no opportunity to avoid or minimize severe injury or death or occupational disease.
The baseline penalty amount for a Type A, B, C, D or E violation is different depending on whether the violator, at the time the notice of violation (NoV) is issued, is (1) an individual, (2) a small business (i.e. any business with fewer than 100 employees or less than $5 million in annual gross revenues) or (3) a large business, which means any business that is not a small business, or a department. When a violation occurs and an AMP is identified as the most appropriate enforcement measure, the baseline penalty amount is predetermined, based on the category of the violator and the type of violation as classified by the proposed Regulations as a Type A, B, C, D or E violation. No discretion exists to vary the baseline penalty.
The proposed Regulations would also set out history of non-compliance as an aggravating factor. If the violator was subject to an enforcement action in the five-year period prior to the occurrence of the violation, the baseline penalty amount would increase by a factor of 200%.
Table 2: Method used to determine the amount of an AMP
Large Business/Department
(c) Payment of AMPs
The new paragraph 270(1)(d) of the Code will allow for the determination of a lesser amount than the penalty imposed, as prescribed in regulations. The proposed Regulations would provide for a reduction of the penalty amount by half if the penalty is paid within 15 business days after the AMP was served. This option would be made available exclusively in cases where the alleged violation falls under a Type A, B or C classification. As outlined in the Code, once a person makes a payment, that person will be considered to have committed the violation and all related proceedings are closed. This would be clearly indicated in the NoV to ensure that a person is aware of the impact of providing early payment to reduce the AMP amount.
(d) Methods of service and requests for review
The proposed Regulations would indicate the method by which a NoV will be served. A NoV is the legal document that, among other things, sets out the relevant facts surrounding a violation and the penalty amount for a violation. The NoV could be served in person, or through registered mail, courier, fax or other electronic means. The proposed Regulations would also set out the manners of service and acceptable proof of service.
In accordance with the new section 281 of the Code, a person or a department that is served with a NoV may, within 30 days after the day on which the notice is served or within any longer period that the Minister allows, make a request to the Minister for a review of the penalty or the facts of the alleged violation, or both. The proposed Regulations would indicate that the request should be made in writing and specify the grounds for review — whether the request is on the amount of the penalty or the facts of the alleged violation, or both. The request will have to be made to the Head of Compliance and Enforcement, rather than to the Minister, once section 615 of the Budget Implementation Act, 2018, No. 2 (S.C. 2018, c. 27) comes into force.
(e) Publishing names and information regarding employers who have received an AMP
Publishing the names and information of employers who have received an AMP aims to deter non-compliance and create an additional incentive to comply with Part II and Part III of the Code and its related regulations.
The practice of naming violators under Part IV of the Code seeks to inform members of the public of employers who do not respect their obligations and employees’ rights provided under the Code and its regulations. The Code stipulates that only employers can be publicly named. Information would not be published until all review and appeal processes have been exhausted.
The new section 295 of the Code will specify that the Minister (or Head of Compliance and Enforcement, once the necessary amendments are in force) can make public the name of an employer, the nature of the violation, the penalty amount as well as any other information prescribed by regulations. Table 3 and Table 4, respectively, identify the information to be published once the amendments to the Code come into force and what information may be published under the proposed Regulations.
Table 3: Information to be published under Part IV
Legal name of the employer
This would include, where applicable, the registered name of the business (the name, registered with the province, under which the business is publicly known) and the corporation name and corporation number.
Nature of the violation or offence
The established short-form description would be published, along with particulars of the violation. This information would not identify any other person associated with, or affected by, the violation or offence.
The AMP amount imposed for offences would be included.
Table 4: Information to be prescribed by regulations
Information on whether the employer is in compliance with the provision that gave rise to the violation, and paid the AMP amount, would be included.
Dates of key decisions
This information would include the date on which the AMP was issued and the date on which the penalty was paid or the date of the review or appeal decision. Where applicable, a link to any Canada Industrial Relations Board order or court decision would be added.
For the naming tool to be effective, it is important that offenders and violators be publicly named in a manner that is readily accessible to the federally regulated workforce, while easily managed to ensure that the addition and removal of published information are performed in a timely fashion. For this reason, it is proposed that the Government of Canada (Labour Program) website be used for this purpose.
(f) Power to determine wages due
Under the new section 288 of the Code, employees summoned to appear at an appeal proceeding at the Canada Industrial Relations Board will be entitled to be paid by their employer at the employee’s regular rate of wages for the time spent at the appeal proceeding that would otherwise have been time spent at work. In the case of employees with irregular work schedules, regulations are needed to determine what the “regular rate of wages” entails. The proposed Regulations will provide that the regular rate of wages of an employee (a) whose hours of work differ from day to day or who is paid on a basis other than time will be equal to at least one twentieth of the wages, excluding overtime pay, that they earned in the four-week period immediately preceding the week in which the first day of the employee’s attendance at an appeal proceeding occurs; or (b) whose wages are paid in whole or in part on a commission basis will be equal to at least one sixtieth of the wages, excluding overtime pay, that they earned in the 12-week period immediately preceding the employee’s attendance at an appeal proceeding. In addition, if an applicable collective agreement that is binding on the employer and the employee provides for a method that is agreed upon, that method will apply.
The first phase of consultations took place between fall 2017 and winter 2018, during which time a discussion paper was provided to a broad range of stakeholders representing employers and employees, which included employer organizations, businesses, labour organizations, advocates for employees’ rights, and professional associations. Internal consultations were also conducted with Labour Program officials.
During these consultations, stakeholders were generally in favour of AMPs and strong support was indicated for the new compliance and enforcement tools. The main messages heard from stakeholders at this time were the following:
AMPs should be reserved for serious or repeat violations;
Education and voluntary compliance measures should remain as primary compliance tools and prosecution should still be available for the most grievous offences;
Size of business, capacity to pay and recidivism should be factors in determining the AMPs; and
Certain occupational health and safety violations should be subject to higher penalties than labour standards violations.
A second phase of consultations, involving the same stakeholders, as well as other government departments responsible for the application of certain occupational health and safety regulations, commenced in December 2018. While the first phase of consultations dealt with the subject of compliance and enforcement in a general manner, the second round of consultations aimed to explain the details of the proposed AMPs regime and public naming provisions. Stakeholders were invited to provide written comments on a policy intent paper, which was circulated on December 21, 2018, for a seven-week comment period. Consultation sessions with internal and external stakeholders took place in the last two weeks of January 2019, with written submissions being received in mid-February.
During the second round of consultations, stakeholders noted that their original concerns were incorporated into the proposed AMP model; however, they provided further suggestions regarding the regulatory proposal. Those suggestions are the following:
History of non-compliance (aggravating factor): the definition of enforcement action, which is required for the application of the aggravating factor for a history of non-compliance, was considered too narrow;
Classification of wage-related provisions as Type “B”: there is belief that these should be classified as Type “C” to send a stronger message to protect wages and employee livelihood;
Systemic violation (aggravating factor): was viewed as a way for non-compliant employers to escape multiple AMPs, especially in conjunction with early payment;
Early payment: should not apply to severe or repeat violations; and
Naming: all violators should be named, rather than those whose violations are classified as most serious.
To incorporate stakeholder feedback, the proposed Regulations were adjusted to bring certain monetary violations, such as failure to pay minimum wage, into the Type “C” category. Furthermore, the aggravating factor of systemic violation was removed and the possibility of a reduction of the penalty amount due to early payment was excluded for the more serious violations.
The regulatory proposal is not expected to pass costs on to employers or workers, therefore, no such costs were presented to stakeholders during consultations.
Indigenous partners were specifically engaged as part of the consultations on this proposal. The Code applies to the governance and administration of Band Councils and federal works, undertakings and businesses under exclusive federal jurisdiction.
The Labour Program has reached out to engage with national Indigenous organizations, as well as with numerous others, and modern treaty holders, in order to enable those who would be impacted to state their views on the regulatory powers established by the changes to the Code. As of this time, one Indigenous partner organization indicated that the proposal set forth in the policy document was appropriate and had no further feedback. Four other Indigenous partners have indicated that they would like more information. The Labour Program will continue to work with Indigenous partners to ensure this proposal addresses any concerns raised.
In accordance with the Cabinet Directive on the Federal Approach to Modern Treaty Implementation , a modern treaty implications assessment was conducted for the legislative proposal, indicating that it was unlikely to result in implications related to specific modern treaty obligations.
The current legislative framework established under Part IV of the Code states specific elements of the regime that must be developed by way of regulations. No other instrument was therefore considered.
The regulatory proposal has a low cost. The costs associated with the regulatory proposal include implementation costs, while the benefits encompass the strengthening and modernization of the Code’s compliance and enforcement provisions, which, in turn, promote increased compliance with the Code and its associated regulations resulting in the enhanced protection of workers rights under federal jurisdiction.
The proposed Regulations would not change the fundamental occupational health, safety and labour standards for federal employees under Part II and Part III of the Code. Compliant employers would assume no incremental costs in satisfying existing terms and conditions. No costs would be passed on to the workers nor the consumers of employers under the federal jurisdiction by the proposed AMPs and naming regime.
In accordance with the Treasury Board of Canada Secretariat Canadian Cost-Benefit Analysis Guide: Regulatory Proposals , taxes, fees, levies and other charges constitute transfers from one group to another, and are therefore not considered to be compliance or administrative costs, whether they are intended as incentives to foster compliance and change behaviour or whether their purpose is to recover the costs of providing a service. Correspondingly, the costs to businesses to pay for AMPs, as well as the revenue to the Government of Canada generated through AMPs, are not considered costs nor benefits within the scope of the regulatory analysis since they are outside the normal course of business, occurring only in instances of non-compliance with Part II and Part III of the Code. Implementation of the AMPs regime is motivated by improving employer compliance; it is not intended nor expected to generate a significant stream of revenue for the fiscal framework. This treatment of AMP costs and revenue is consistent with the analyses of the federal organizations that established AMPs systems by regulatory amendments over the past several years.
AMPs: With the Regulations in place, Labour Program officers would continue to monitor compliance with Part II and Part III of the Code through employer workplace inspections, responding to complaints, and various other techniques to assess compliance. The Labour Program would continue to dedicate the same level of operational funding toward enforcement activity under the regulatory scenario as without regulations.
The threshold at which enforcement tools will be applied (zero tolerance vs. a graduated approach) will be a ministerial decision outside the scope of the Regulations. From 2013 to 2016, the volume of violations resulting in directions and payment orders was 7 500 per year for Part II violations and 2 467 for Part III. Prosecution was pursued, on average, for 5 serious cases per year. These volumes provide a maximum bound on the number of violations if a zero tolerance approach were taken in issuing AMPs. However, it is anticipated that preliminary indications of violations would incentivize the vast majority of employers to comply, thereby avoiding monetary penalties. A significant reduction in the number of violations is anticipated once the regulatory amendments come into force in 2020. The compliance rate is expected to gradually rise as the monetary incentives of the AMPs regime gradually become an established component of the Labour Program’s compliance and enforcement measures and well known to employers.
Naming: The compliance and enforcement measures under the regulatory scenario would include a new line of activity for the Labour Program to inform members of the public of the employers who do not respect their obligations and employees’ rights provided under the Code and its regulations. The process to identify non-compliant employers for inclusion on the departmental website would be funded from existing compliance and enforcement resources. Minor costs would be incurred to periodically review and update the names of non-compliant employers to include on the Government of Canada’s website.
Determination of the regular rate of wages: No incremental costs to the Government would be incurred as a result of the means of determining the regular rate of wages specified in the Regulations, as this would be based on existing information about pay and work hours that is currently provided by employers in cases of appeals, and specifies only the method by which wages would be computed.
Transition costs: Implementing a system to issue AMPs and track payments would require funding for the development and modification of existing IT systems, including the Integrated Labour System, with possible coordination with the Canada Revenue Agency. Costs would be incurred by the Labour Program to develop and provide training materials for Labour Program officers conveying how to determine when violations will result in the issuance of an AMP. Educational materials would be prepared by the Labour Program and provided to employers. These transition costs are anticipated to be $1,187,500, mostly in IT costs, to be incurred in the first three years of operation.
Communication costs: A communication strategy would be developed to announce the new enforcement measures. The communications plan would employ digital media and platforms as the primary means to connect and interact with stakeholders with the aim to raise awareness of new compliance and enforcement measures. It would also include minor costs for press releases, updates to the Departmental website, etc. Communication costs are estimated to be $33,900 incurred by the Labour Program in the first year of regulatory implementation.
Total costs: The total estimated costs of the regulatory proposal to implement and administer the proposed new consequences for non-compliance with Part II and Part III of the Code would be $1.2 million in the 10-year period following the introduction of the proposed regulatory amendments. These costs would be fully incurred by the Government of Canada and absorbed by existing budgetary resources of the Labour Program.
The impact of the proposed Regulations on small businesses has been considered and it is not anticipated that small businesses would bear a disproportionate burden when complying with the proposed Regulations. The small business lens therefore does not apply as there are no associated impacts on small businesses.
As previously stated, the proposed Regulations do not alter the fundamental occupational health, safety and labour standards for federal employees under Part II and Part III of the Code. The regulatory proposal would thereby not add requirements for small businesses. AMPs may allow greater certainty regarding the enforcement of existing minimum standards guaranteed under the Code. Accordingly, benefits of the proposed Regulations include increased compliance with obligations imposed by Part II and Part III of the Code.
Finally, although it has been determined that there are no associated risks to small businesses, the proposed Regulations specify lower penalty amounts for small businesses in order to effectively deter non-compliance while remaining non-punitive.
AMP regimes are currently used to foster compliance with a wide range of standards in the United States, Australia and Britain, as well as in Canada at both the federal and provincial levels.
AMPs and the naming of violators to enforce occupational health and safety and labour standards can also be found in other provincial jurisdictions in Canada:
Alberta, Nova Scotia and Quebec include AMPs in their occupational health and safety legislation. Alberta publishes the names of violators under occupational health and safety.
New Brunswick has included AMPs in its employment standards legislation.
British Columbia uses AMPs in occupational health and safety and in employment standards legislation. British Columbia includes the authority to name violators in its employment standards legislation.
Manitoba uses AMPs in occupational health and safety and in employment standards legislation. Manitoba publishes the names of violators under its employment standards.
Yukon includes AMPs in its occupational health and safety and employment standards legislation. Yukon includes the authority to name violators in its employment standards legislation.
Ontario issues tickets for employment standards violations under the authority of its Provincial Offences Act and publishes the names of those who have been issued tickets.
A departmental GBA+ assessment conducted in support of the legislative changes to the Code reveals that changes to update compliance and enforcement measures would result in positive outcomes for vulnerable workers, including members of Indigenous communities, new immigrants, ethnic minorities, youth and persons with disabilities, and individuals in positions of precarious employment.
Recognizing that the number of positions of precarious employment is rising in Canada, it was found that vulnerable workers would benefit from updated compliance and enforcement measures that support labour standards and occupational health and safety (OHS) obligations, as it is generally these individuals who are denied these rights and protections.
Among women workers, research suggests that more robust enforcement measures would result in an increase of job security, labour force attachment, and confidence in redress avenues and complaint handling while decreasing income inequality, poverty and barriers to enforcing their rights (e.g. lack of education or knowledge and unjust dismissal). Research findings also indicate that experiences of discrimination, harassment, and violence could be mitigated through a proactive and updated compliance and enforcement regime.
Implementation of the proposed Regulations will require the development of work instruments and tools, training material, and communications tools to inform Canadians, employers, employees as well as the inspectorate and federal public servants. In addition, before the new measures can be put to use, it will be necessary to train staff to ensure that they may communicate how the measures work to Canadians and effectively apply the new tools to enforce occupational health and safety and labour standard protections in a consistent manner.
Once the new measures are designed and implemented, the Labour Program will remain responsible for the management and monitoring of these measures and will improve the efficiency — and manage ongoing impacts — of the regulatory proposal by making the required changes to the respective regulations and their underlying policies.
Currently, compliance with Part II and Part III of the Code is achieved using a variety of reactive approaches, including education, investigation of complaints and inspection of workplaces. In specific circumstances, cases may be referred to arbitrators or, namely in cases of a criminal nature, to the appropriate authority. There is presently no AMP regime under Part II and Part III of the Code. The current approach leaves gaps, as the existing compliance measures do not allow for the realization of the full value of the Code’s protections for Canadians.
It is anticipated that the new Part IV and the associated regulatory proposal will help fill the existing gaps in terms of enforcement of the Code, and may result in the decline in the actual instances of fatalities, disabling injuries, reprisals, and unpaid wages, which would allow for a reduction of a number of chronic issues among federally regulated employers.
The regulatory proposal supports a shift to a proactive approach. AMPs will be one of the tools that constitute the Labour Program’s compliance continuum, which is comprised of a suite of enforcement tools to address non-compliance under Part II and Part III of the Code found in the Budget Implementation Act, 2017, No. 1 aimed at educating employers and employees. Therefore, it is anticipated that AMPs will generally be issued after voluntary compliance measures have been exhausted, unless the nature of the violation or the employer’s history of compliance dictate otherwise. Public naming is another enforcement tool added with the aim of deterring non-compliance and creating an additional incentive to comply with Part II and Part III of the Code.
It is intended that AMPs be issued centrally by the Labour Program to allow for consistency and an adequate level of oversight. OHS regulations, as they apply to employees employed on ships, trains or aircrafts are enforced by Transport Canada. OHS regulations as they apply to employees employed on or in connection with exploration or drilling for or the production, conservation, processing or transportation of oil or gas in frontier lands are enforced by Natural Resources Canada, the National Energy Board and by Indigenous and Northern Affairs Canada. Following the consultation of officers responsible for the application of the OHS regulations in extended jurisdictions, it is proposed that AMPs resulting from the contravention of a sector-specific provision also be issued by the Labour Program on recommendation from the relevant extended jurisdiction partners.
If this regulatory amendment is approved by the Governor in Council, the coming-into-force date would be in 2020.
