The Minister led the session and spoke about the government’s response to COVID-19. The Minister took this opportunity to announce the $75,000 funding awarded by the Ministry of Labour to the League of Champions. He also announced the approval of a reclassification of non-residential construction G1 rate in Year 2 (2021). This is a result of the high degree of health and safety in the ICI sector.
The presentation about “OHS and Human Rights Compliance Challenges during COVID-19” and “Employment & Labour Law Issues” were presented by two of Ontario’s top health and safety, labour and human rights construction lawyers: Norm Keith from Fasken and Mike Sherrard of Sherrard Kuzz.
Thank you, Minister McNaughton, for your support of the League and for recognizing our contribution to the industry. Thank you to our wonderful speakers, Norm and Mike, and to all the participants everyone who made this webinar a success.
