Temp worker compliance documents in Ontario

Per-assignment documentation

Licensed Ontario THAs commonly maintain:

  • Assignment details (role, host employer, start date, terms)
  • Assignment-employee hour records — 3-year retention
  • Joint OHSA safety orientation between THA and host employer
  • Host-employer compliance packet (WSIB, workplace safety requirements)
  • Candidate screening file (work authorization, certifications, consent)

Checklist-driven assignment files

Build a temp-worker checklist template. Attach to each assignment record. Collect orientation acknowledgments and supporting documents through the my-id.ca portal. Export PDF when the assignment file is complete.

Bill 27 context

Mandatory licensing since July 2024 increased audit visibility. Organized electronic files with timestamped uploads beat email archaeology when inspectors or clients request records.

General operational information for Ontario recruiters and staffing agencies — not employment law, immigration, or HR compliance advice.

Answers are general operational information only — not legal, tax, regulatory, clinical, privacy, immigration, or professional advice. Requirements vary by matter, client, and regulator.

Frequently asked questions

What must a THA document per assignment?
Typically assignment details, hour records, safety orientation acknowledgment, host-employer documentation, and candidate screening items. Confirm with current ESA guidance.
How long are hour records kept?
At least three years under the Employment Standards Act for assignment-employee hour records.
Does hivi-x replace safety training systems?
No. hivi-x collects and organizes documentation such as orientation acknowledgments — not workplace safety training delivery.
