Improving the maintenance of activities process under the Canada Labour Code: Closed consultation
From: Employment and Social Development Canada
Current status: Closed
The consultation ran from October 19, 2022 to January 31, 2023.
During a strike or lockout, federally regulated employers and unions must continue any activities necessary to protect the public from immediate and serious danger. However, the Government has heard that there are problems with the process for deciding whether activities need to be maintained. To make sure that the Canada Labour Code (Code) protects the public in the most efficient way possible, the Government consulted with interested Canadians on ways to improve the maintenance of activities process.
