Employment & Labour Relations
Both the federal and provincial/territorial governments have jurisdiction over employment and labour relations in Canada. Most employment matters are governed by provincial legislation, but the federal government has jurisdiction over certain industries such as inter-provincial transportation, banking and communications.
Employers have to comply with the provincial employment-related legislation in each province they operate.
