Overview:

This webinar gives employers a practical roadmap for hiring in Canada compliantly and with confidence in light of Canada's complex hiring rules. From human rights compliant job postings to enforceable employment contracts and proper onboarding, every step of the hiring process carries legal obligations-and missteps can lead to costly claims, wrongful dismissal claims, and compliance penalties.

The webinar will break down important must know tips that will help Canadian employers remain compliant through the hiring process, and the best practices that set employers apart in competitive markets. Topics will include legal requirements and best practices for job ads (including statutory and human rights expectations), interviews and interview follow-up, considerations for the onboarding process including what new employees need to be provided with (including a discussion of the importance of employment contracts and their key provisions), and common pitfalls and consequences that can occur in the hiring and onboarding process.

Whether you're hiring your first employee or managing a growing team, this session equips you with the tools to recruit effectively while protecting your organization from unnecessary risk.
