Ontario Building Opportunities in the Skilled Trades Act
BOSTA will replace existing skilled trades and apprenticeship legislation, the Ontario College of Trades and Apprenticeship Act, 2009 (OCTAA) and the Modernizing the Skilled Trades and Apprenticeship Act, 2019 (MSTAA).
Transition from the Ontario College of Trades to Skilled Trades Ontario
The Building Opportunities in the Skilled Trades Act, 2021 has resulted in significant changes to the trades registration system in Ontario. To practice a compulsory trade in Ontario you will need to have a valid Registered Training Agreement, Provisional Certificate of Qualification or Certificate of Qualification. Only the information for individuals practicing compulsory trades will appear on the Skilled Trades Ontario Public Register, and renewals will only be required for Certificates of Qualification in compulsory trades. Skilled Trades Ontario will issue Certificates of Qualification in compulsory and non-compulsory trades with exams.
Additionally, the Ministry of Labour, Training and Skills Development, MLTSD, has assumed responsibility for compliance and enforcement through its Occupational Health and Safety Inspectorate.
If you would like to report that work in a trade was not completed according to safety regulations or is not within the scope of practice for that trade, please contact the Occupational Health and Safety Contact Centre within the Ministry of Labour, Training and Skills Development toll-free at 1-877-202-0008. Alternatively, you can file a workplace health and safety complaint online.
