Canada’s Employment Insurance program urgently needs reform. Our EI system is out of step with today’s labour market and has failed to deliver for many Canadians during the COVID-19 pandemic.after an overhaul of the previous Unemployment Insurance system, the EI program seems stuck in the past. As the COVID-19 pandemic revealed, the current EI system also cannot handle sudden labour market disruptions.
The good news is that the federal government recognizes this and has recently held consultations on how to modernize EI. However, for reforms to effectively address the challenges Canada faces, the government must treat employers and workers as true partners in finding and implementing solutions.What is social dialogue?
Social dialogue is a proven governance tool that has worked well in several countries and across several international organizations, such as the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development , the European Commission, the International Labour Organization and the United Nations. A chief advantage of social dialogue is that it can achieve better outcomes than consultation alone because it focuses on consensus and transparency.
