  • Who to Inspect? Using Employee Complaint Data to Inform Workplace Inspections in Ontario

    Andrea M Noack, Andie Noack et al.ARTICLECanadian Public Policy2020Cited by: 1References: 4

    In Ontario, as in many other jurisdictions, employment standards enforcement includes reactively investigating employee complaints and, to a lesser extent, proactively inspecting workplaces. Analyses of administrative data from Ontario’s Ministry of Labour (MOL) show that the use of complaint data to inform workplace inspections is quite limited. Strict adherence to the MOL’s procedures for workplace inspections is not conducive to the investigat…
