Head offices, logistics, and Pearson Airport
Mississauga is home to one of Canada's largest concentrations of corporate head offices, alongside a major logistics and warehousing sector connected to Toronto Pearson International Airport. Employees at head-office employers often have layered compensation, base salary, bonus, and sometimes equity, while logistics and warehouse employees more often encounter temporary layoffs, shift changes, and questions about independent contractor status.
Corporate severance and logistics-sector layoffs
We regularly assist Mississauga employees at every level, from warehouse and logistics staff facing a temporary layoff, to head-office professionals negotiating a severance package that includes bonus and incentive compensation. Both groups are protected by the same Employment Standards Act minimums and common law notice principles, even though the packages themselves can look very different.

Not always. Some workers labelled as independent contractors are, in reality, employees under the law, and misclassification can affect what you are owed.
