The Federal government intends to amend the Income Tax Act to extend the deadline for making donations eligible for tax claim in the 2024 tax year, until February 28, 2025. This extension will help offset the effects of the four-week Canada Post mail stoppage by giving donors enough time to ensure their contributions are received and processed, enabling charities to continue delivering essential services to the communities that rely on them.

On April 5, 2024, an unprecedented fine was levied towards a corporation and its director for violation of the Occupational Health and Safety Act. The corporation was fined $600,000 and the director was fined $80,000, plus a 25% victim surcharge.⁠ ⁠ These are highest fines levied both towards a corporation, and to an individual for a single charge in Canadian history, and is further evidence that governing bodies are serious about enforcing legislation to protect workers and prevent further fatalities and injuries.⁠ ⁠ To learn more, visit our blog - link in bio.⁠ ⁠

Health & Safety considerations for the total solar eclipse: On Monday, April 8, 2024, a total solar eclipse will cross North America, briefly turning day into darkness. Depending on where you’re located in Ontario, the eclipse will be visible between 2 and 4 p.m. Ensure any outdoor workers are informed of the danger and don’t look directly at the sun during the eclipse. You may also consider suspending or modifying work during this period as the eclipse will result in a period of temporary darkness. To safely view the eclipse, use specialized eye protection that meets ISO 12312-2 standard. Don’t use regular sunglasses. Specialized protection is 1,000 times darker than ordinary sunglass lenses. If viewing the eclipse through a camera, telescope, or binoculars, use special filters designed for solar viewing. For any Health & Safety questions, contact our Human Resources Solutions team.

On March 21, 2024, Ontario passed the fourth Working for Workers Act ("Bill 149"). Bill 149 amends the Employment Standards Act, 2000 (“ESA”) and Workplace Safety and Insurance Board (“WSIB”) benefits under the Workplace Safety and Insurance Act, 1997 (“WSIA”). Effective immediately, Bill 149 amended the ESA to clarify that: 🟢 Any person performing work in a trial period is an employee for the purpose of the ESA. 🟢 An employer cannot deduct an employee's wages in the event of a dine and dash or gas and dash, or in the event of any other stolen property. On June 21, 2024, the following amendments to the ESA will take effect: 🟢 If an employer has a policy regarding pooling tips – meaning the employer or a director or shareholder of the employer shares in the tip pool – that policy must be posted in the workplace and retained for three years after it ceases to be in effect. 🟢 An employer who pays an employee their tips by direct deposit must allow the employee to select into which account they want this money deposited. 🟢 An employer who pays an employee by cash or cheque must ensure the cash or cheque is given to the employee at their workplace or some other place agreeable to the employee. 🟢 A change in the language of the vacation pay provisions to clarify that a written agreement is required if an employer pays vacation pay in any way other than a lump sum. For example, many employers pay out vacation pay as a percentage on each pay cheque. This practice requires a written agreement with the employee. Does this raise more questions than it answers? Our HR Solutions team is ready to help. Contact us any time with your HR and H&S concerns.

Eg; you had a baby and need more space, someone passed away, there was a divorce, etc. ⁠ ⁠ For more information visit the link in our bio.⁠ ⁠ #propertyflipping #houseflipping #taxseason
