Important Context

Ontario's New Employment Law is Already in Effect

Since January 1st, 2026, Ontario employers must comply with O. Reg. 476/24. Missing the 45-day notification requirement means potential Ministry of Labour complaints.

What You Must Do Now

  • Disclose salary ranges on all job postings (max $50k spread)
  • Notify interviewees within 45 days if they're no longer being considered
  • Disclose AI usage in your hiring process
  • Never require "Canadian experience" in postings
  • Retain all records for 3 years

The Problem with Current Options

  • SaaS ATS = $300-800/month forever (and price increases yearly)
  • Most aren't ESA-compliant — you'd still track 45 days manually
  • 4-8 week implementations when you need compliance NOW
  • Spreadsheets aren't audit-ready and errors are inevitable
  • US-focused products don't understand Canadian law
