WORKING REQUIREMENTS FOR BACKGROUND PERFORMERS

At ML Talent Agency, we prioritize compliance with Canadian employment regulations. All individuals seeking employment with us must meet specific requirements mandated by Canadian law:

1. Legal Authorization to Work:

  • Individuals must possess legal authorization to work in Canada or hold valid work permits. You will be asked to provide valid and current documentation.

2. Health and Safety Awareness Training:

  • Completion of a mandatory health and safety awareness module is essential for all performers. Use the provided link to access the training: Health and Safety Training for Workers.

  • Bring a photocopy of the certificate to each new set or keep a picture on your phone as proof.

WHAT YOU NEED ON SETS:

1) Residency Forms:

  • Production requires completed residency forms before releasing payments. Performers must arrive with either their driver's license number or a photo copy of a document (e.g., bank statement, utility bill) displaying their address. Health cards are not sufficient.

2) Ministry of Labour Certification:

  • Since July 1st, a hard copy of the Online Safety Course certification through the Ministry of Labour is mandatory in Ontario. TAKE THE COURSE HERE

  • Print and bring copies to each new set. Keep a photo on your phone and ensure easy access to email it to production if needed. The agency won't handle emailing this paperwork.

Ensure compliance with these requirements to avoid any issues while working on set.
