- 15. Talking about jobs: Six Good Ideas 1. Promote local job matchmaking: Take a coordinated approach to local workforce development that brings together the key labour market stakeholders---to meet the real needs in our communities. 2. The right job for internationally trained professionals: Develop and build upon programs for both employers and internationally trained professionals that will allow Ontario’s economy to more fully benefit from their skills and experience. 3. Support workplace-based learning: Provide infrastructure support for workplace–based learning that meets the needs of employers and workers. 4. Give Ontarians a new and improved Employment Standards Act (ESA): Modernize and better enforce the ESA to ensure all workers can access the safety net that sets the minimum standards for Ontarians’ working lives. 5. Support Ontario workers’ right to choose a union: Amend and enforce the Labour Relations Act so that it meaningfully supports workers’ right to organize in the twenty-first century economy. 6. Ensure better protection for migrant workers: Extend minimum protections to all temporary workers 11
