Orange: Question / Learning

Does your non-profit know how the Employment Standards Act defines a "contract worker"?

A "contract worker” is defined as a specific type of employee under the Employment Standards Act. The definition applies to workers with an economic dependence on their employer, and where the relationship is more like an employer-employee relationship than a client-contractor relationship. 

This means that the rules that apply to employees under the Employment Standards Act also apply to contract workers.
 

Does your non-profit have a Register of Members in its official records folder?

A Register of Members is an official record that must be created and maintained by a non-profit. The Register of Members lists the names of members and one piece of contact information the member has provided. The best recordkeeping practice is for the Register of Members to include only the names of members and one piece of contact information the member has provided for that purpose.
