New laws and regulations are coming to Ontario in 2025.
From gig workers’ wages to cannabis regulations, there are a few changes to laws and regulations coming in the new year.
The Ford government has been busy announcing revisions to acts. The government has said the changes will streamline services, “reduce red tape” or improve safety.
Here are some of the changes coming in 2025:
Minimum wage for gig workers
New protections for gig workers, including ride-share, delivery, courier, and other digital platform-based services such as Uber and Door Dash, are coming.
Ontario’s Digital Platform Workers’ Rights Act will come into force on July 1, 2025. The act requires operators to pay at least minimum wage for each work assignment and provide detailed information about how worker pay is calculated.
Operators will also be prohibited from withholding earnings or tips, except in limited circumstances.
This act comes as gig workers protested at Pearson Airport in Mississauga about unclear pay models this year.
