The Business Council of British Columbia responded to a request for submissions to be considered by the Labour Relations Code Review Panel in making “any recommendations for amendments and updates to the Code.” The Panel’s Terms of Reference provide that “each issue” must be considered from the perspective of how to “ensure workplaces support a growing, sustainable economy with fair laws for workers and business” and “promote certainty as well as harmonious and stable labour/management relations.” Moreover, in its review of “each issue,” the Panel is to consider relevant developments in other Canadian jurisdictions. However, no specific “issues” for consideration are identified in the Panel’s mandate.
