The Vulnerable Worker Open Work Permit is designed for individuals experiencing abuse or exploitation in the workplace. If your employer is failing to pay the agreed-upon wages, imposing unreasonable working hours, or subjecting you to any form of workplace hardship not in accordance with Canadian employment standards, you may be eligible to apply for this permit. It provides the opportunity to leave an abusive work situation and apply for an open work permit without the fear of jeopardizing your legal status in Canada.
