A lot of people are talking about higher mandatory standards in the wake of this report, most importantly Ontario's Labour Minister: https://www.thestar.com/news/queenspark/2017/09/11/temp-work... Publicity of the working conditions and pay of low-skilled workers invariably leads to calls for more stringent mandatory standards, as if you can outlaw poverty and low-living standards. >>Unless the onus of taking on such check was so great that they suddenly decide to put all their money into R&D, these jobs will continue to exist. The effect is on the margins. No single mandate will have a significant impact, but each one adds costs, and in the aggregate, they have a significant effect on economic growth, which is a compounding effect that translates to massive long-term effects. |
