Nouvelle disposition législative relative aux accords de fixation des salaires et de non-débauchage

Business, Communications 0:42:42

Le Bureau de la concurrence est un organisme d’application de la loi indépendant qui protège et favorise la concurrence au profit des consommateurs et des entreprises canadiennes. La concurrence entraîne une baisse des prix et l’innovation tout en alimentant la croissance économique.

Le Bureau de la concurrence s’emploie à soutenir et à protéger les Canadiens en favorisant un marché concurrentiel et innovateur. Pour ce faire, ils utilisent diverses méthodes, notamment le promotion, la sensibilisation, les consultations, les partenariats et l’application de la loi.

En juin 2022, le gouvernement du Canada a apporté des modifications à la Loi, notamment en ajoutant le paragraphe 45(1.1) aux dispositions existantes sur le complot criminel. Ce nouveau paragraphe protège la concurrence sur les marchés du travail en interdisant les accords entre employeurs pour fixer les salaires et restreindre la mobilité professionnelle. À l’instar des accords entre concurrents concernant la fixation des prix, la répartition des marchés et les restrictions de production, les accords de fixation des salaires et de non-débauchage minent la concurrence et l’allocation efficace des ressources. Le maintien et l’encouragement de la concurrence entre les employeurs se traduisent par des salaires et traitements plus élevés, ainsi que par de meilleurs avantages sociaux et opportunités d’emploi pour les employés.

Aujourd’hui, nous rencontrons Majid Charania, directeur de la conformité. L’unité est chargée de promouvoir le respect de la Loi sur la concurrence et aujourd’hui, ​nous allons discuter d’une nouvelle disposition législative qui porte sur les accords de fixation des salaires et de non-débauchage.

Competition Bureau – June 22, 2023, new legal provisions come into force

Business, Communications 0:25:57

The Competition Bureau is an independent law enforcement agency that protects and promotes competition for the benefit of Canadian consumers and businesses. Competition drives lower prices and innovation while fueling economic growth.

The Competition Bureau works to support and protect Canadians by fostering a competitive and innovative marketplace. They do this using various methods, including advocacy, outreach, consultations, partnerships, and enforcement.

In June 2022, the Government of Canada made changes to the Act, including adding subsection 45(1.1) to the existing criminal conspiracy provisions. This new subsection protects competition in labour markets by prohibiting agreements between employers to fix wages and restrict job mobility. Like agreements between competitors related to price-fixing, market allocation and output restrictions, wage-fixing and no-poaching agreements undermine competition and the efficient allocation of resources. Maintaining and encouraging competition among employers results in higher wages and salaries, as well as better benefits and employment opportunities for employees.

Today we’re meeting with Majid Charania, Director of Compliance. The unit is responsible for promoting compliance with the Competition Act and today we’re going to discuss a new section of the law that prohibits wage fixing and no poaching agreements.

Sharing successful entrepreneurial stories

Business, Coaching & Consulting, Communications, Events & Entertainment 00:21:31

Faisal Karmali is an author, business expert and media personality, business and market expert for 770CHQR and CTV Morning Live in Calgary, and an entrepreneur. He brings his passion for helping people succeed in their businesses to his interviews and advice straight to you.

The Karmali Exchange with Faisal Karmali is a monthly web show and podcast, featuring successful entrepreneurs sharing their stories about how they achieved their goals, some of the challenges they have had along the way, and their advice that can help other business owners learn and grow their own companies.

He describes his mission this way:

“No entrepreneur does it by themselves. Every day, I speak to entrepreneurs about their businesses, and analyze and report on dozens of companies for thousands of people. I’ve noticed a pattern: what makes the basic building blocks of a successful business.

“I also know that entrepreneurship is a difficult, and often lonely endeavour. The best way to find solutions for your business is to talk to other entrepreneurs for insight and unique perspectives. But it’s hard to find those people to talk to when you are working so hard.

“That’s why I’ve decided to create a community to share advice, ideas and insights from experts, as well as the things I’ve learned from decades of studying successful businesses. Join us today to get the help you need to take your business to the next level.”

Supporting Staff for Success

Business, Communications, Fashion & Garments, Retail 00:21:07

Tammie Hunter was raised on Vancouver Island and as an adult lived in several communities around BC before settling in Nanaimo near her family. After exploring a few careers, she discovered later in life that being an entrepreneur is the most rewarding and engaging. She often says she wishes she had known what being a business owner was like earlier on in life.

As an artist she has had a very successful career selling her art in several galleries and art shows over the past 20 years. Since she started LegArt Apparel her art has taken a backseat. But she’s itching to get back into her studio to continue her lifelong dream of being a serious artist.

Tammie started LegArt Apparel in 2014. Since then, it has grown to be one of the top apparel companies in Canada in its particular style of clothing, mainly leggings. The company has grown from the original box of 100 pairs of leggings in the basement to over 4,000 pieces of inventory in a large warehouse and storefront in Nanaimo.

After almost 10 years in the industry, Tammie has gained much experience, having learned mostly through trial and error what it takes to be successful in the apparel industry. Through many ups and downs, hard work both mentally and physically, and learning with a team of dedicated employees and mentors she feels it’s time to implement an exit plan that will set her successor up for further success. The next three years will bring new challenges but she is up for it!
