Dear Minister Fonseca,

I am very concerned to hear about changes to Employment Standards introduced under Bill 68 “Open for Business. These changes will put more barriers in place for workers filing claims and will force workers to settle for less.

I am writing to ask that you amend Bill 68 to scrap provisions on mandatory self-enforcement and facilitated settlements. We need zero tolerance for employers that break the law, not changes that force workers to settle for less.

Don’t put more barriers in place for workers standing up for their basic rights. Ensure workers have support to make complaints about bad bosses. Please watch this video at www.workersactioncentre.org to find out more about why I am opposed to these changes to workers rights under Bill 68.

Sincerely,

[your name]
