Because of the unique attributes of staffing and recruitment in Canada, a major focus of the association’s advocacy is to proactively ensure that labour and employment laws do not impede staffing agency operations or unnecessarily increase costs, which could reduce labor market flexibility. In its most recent 2022/23 economic report, Staffing Industry Analysts recognizes Canada as the market with the least regulations and legislative restrictions in the world.
ACSESS Government Relations Committees in all provinces have worked tirelessly to defend the interests of our members, respond to policy proposals and to educate government officials on the important role of the industry in Canada.
