FAQ
In Quebec, the Act respecting labour standards protects most employees by providing minimum acceptable working conditions.
The employer must give written notice of termination of employment in ance with the prescribed notice period to the worker who is being dismissed. If they do not give notice or do not give sufficient notice, the worker is entitled to an indemnity, that is, monetary compensation.
All employers, whatever the size of the business, must: make the workplace safe. prevent risks to health. make sure that plant and machinery is safe to use. make sure safe working practices are set up and followed. make sure that all materials are handled, stored and used safely. provide adequate first aid facilities.
A labor standard is the measurement of how long it takes for a worker to complete a specific task or activity. We measure most labor standards in seconds. We create standards by observing an employee performing the task in question. The observer takes the measurement under normal circumstances.
The draft Regulation increases, as of , the general rate of the minimum wage to $15.75 per hour and the rate of the minimum wage payable to an employee who receives gratuities or tips to $12.60 per hour. It also increases, as of the same date, the minimum wage payable to raspberry and strawberry pickers.
But under FLSA, the base wage for tipped employees is $2.13 per hour (2). As of January 1, 2023, Ohio's minimum wage is $10.10 per hour for non-tipped employees. Under Ohio law for tipped employees, the minimum wage is one-half of the state's minimum wage, or $5.05 per hour plus tips (3).
The Act respecting labour standards applies to most employees in Quebec, including those working remotely (for example, working from home). An employee is someone who works for an employer and receives a salary. The Act respecting labour standards says what is legally acceptable regarding working conditions.
