Since the early 1990s, employment protection legislation (EPL) has become a concern for public policy makers in particular with respect to its impact on unemployment and productivity. This topic arose pronounced attention of international organizations. Indeed, these institutions have built analytical models to assess the strictness of EPL in different countries, but we find that these models are sometimes incomplete despite the abundance of information they provide. The purpose of this article is to propose the introduction of new elements to the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) analysis model based on the Canadian experience. We, thus, propose to adjust the synthetic indicator of EPL for Canada taking into account local specificities not taken into consideration by the OECD.
