Employment Law for Paralegals equips students with practical knowledge of the common law and statutory legal aspects of employment, tailored to the paralegal scope of practice and the Law Society of Ontario’s education competencies.

This resource offers an in-depth and up-to-date examination of the following areas: employment standards, labour relations, employment contracts, occupational health and safety, workplace safety and insurance, labour law, and human rights as they relate to the workplace.

The third edition features extensive legislative updates, updated case law, and new material relating to LSO Paralegal competencies. It includes discussion regarding the effect of the pandemic on relevant workplace and tribunal practices and procedures. Real-world case studies, “In the News” boxes, and sample forms contextualize content and encourage applied learning, while our LAW+ study tools offer engaging multi-media learning opportunities.

This essential resource will prepare paralegal students to navigate the complicated legal processes of employment law and effectively advocate for their clients.
