On Friday, January 31, 2025, members of Dentons’ Employment and Labour group from across the country came together to reflect on the significant developments from 2024 and explore the trends that would shape Canada's workplaces in 2025.

The session, moderated by Andy Pushalik, featured an engaging discussion with colleagues from Ontario, Quebec, Alberta, and British Columbia. We took a look back at the pivotal moments of 2024 and delved into the key trends, challenges, and opportunities that employers and employees can expect in the coming year.
