The Ontario Federation of Agriculture is keeping an eye on the province's Changing Workplaces Review.
The review was commissioned in early 2015 by the Minister of Labour, who tasked a group of Special Advisors to determine what changes, if any, should be made to labour legislation in light of the changing nature of the workforce, the workplace, and the economy itself.
Director of the OFA, Mark Wales, says the organization is reviewing the recommendations specific to agricultural employees and will be addressing concerns with the Ministry of Labour.
Wales says any changes that make labour unaffordable will cause a shift away from labour intensive crops grown in our province.
