Ontario's Employment Services for People with Disabilities: Is Red Tape Holding Them Back? New report reveals challenges under the revamped system. People with disabilities face unique barriers in the job market. A recent transformation of Ontario's employment services aimed for efficiency, but it's created unintended consequences. The report, "Tangled in Red Tape," finds: Increased administrative burden reduces support for job seekers. Funding struggles and high caseloads create a difficult environment. Staff turnover threatens expertise within the sector. The report calls for urgent action, including: Reducing red tape to free up time for direct support. Re-evaluating funding and performance measures. Addressing staff burnout and expertise loss. We urge the Ministry of Labour, Immigration, Training and Skills Development (MLITSD) to address these concerns and ensure effective support for job seekers with disabilities.

At-will employment means employees can choose to leave their employer at any time and conversely employers can terminate employment at any time. However, at-will employment does not protect employers from claims such as discrimination or wrongful termination.   Regardless of how poor an employee’s performance may be, following a performance management process prior to termination is necessary to provide employers with a solid legal defense and avoid costly fines or settlement fees.   Want to learn more?

Most employers prefer notice before an employee quits, often requiring two to three weeks' notice in employment contracts. This notice period helps employers adjust and assist with the transition. In B.C., while there is no law mandating resignation notice, including this requirement in contracts can prevent sudden departures. If an employee quits without the agreed-upon notice, the employer can sue for breach of contract.

It feels surreal to think that it has already been a month since I came back to #WesternU as a staff member. #Jobsearch is daunting, to say the least, and until you move through the pipeline to get to the #interview stage, it continues to be disheartening. My first interview that broke the repetitive process of #networking, writing cover letters and applying was a refresher. Confident, well-prepared and truly enthused about the project that was on the table, I was offered the position within hours of my interview but along the process, realized that the fit would be unsustainable for a variety of reasons. Despite being entirely unemployed, I politely declined the offer with transparency, and stood resolute in landing a job that would truly resonate with my skills and ambitions, career goals, and overall compensation. About a month later, it worked out! Perhaps I couldn't have afforded this choice when I first graduated. But as I learnt about my needs, my goals and what I want out of a job, I HAD to have patience. If you are in a position where I was two months ago, remind yourself of what you want. Know yourself- be introspective. Create a list of goals for the job you're searching for. What worked in your last job? What did not? What do you wish to do differently? You get to be selective in designing your #career- allow yourself the flexibility and you won't regret it.
