Canadian Employment Agreements & Employee Handbooks for US Companies

Currently operating or hiring in Canada? Meet your Canadian HR Partner.


Hiring or already operating in Canada? US employment documents will not protect you here. Canadian employment laws are different, and using the wrong contracts or policies can lead to expensive compliance issues and high termination notice liabilities.

We help US companies create province‑specific employment agreements and employee handbooks that protect your business, set clear expectations, and give you confidence when hiring and managing staff in Canada.

Already operating in Canada with existing employees?

For US entities that already have Canadian staff, we create compliant employment agreements and employee handbooks, then guide you through rolling them out to current employees. Getting sign-off from existing staff is more complex than for new hires, but we make the process smooth and efficient. The result is proper documentation, reduced liability, and clear expectations across your workforce.

US Companies Launching in Canada

New to Canada? Welcome! We create customized Canadian employment agreements and a complete employee handbook so your business is protected from day one. Build a solid HR foundation that manages your most valuable asset: employees. Get it right from the start and avoid compliance problems, costly termination liabilities, and inconsistent side deals that you'll have to untangle down the road.

HR Concierge Support

You can also delegate registration with Canadian regulatory agencies to us as your proxy. Think of us as your Canadian HR concierge and ongoing HR support service.

We can set up your HR software.

Take it to the next level with HR Sync. We'll handle your Canadian HR software implementation so you can manage your workforce your way, not the way a local office decides. You stay in control, gain full insight, and pay as low as $100/month subscription. Far more efficient and affordable than managing HR through documents and email.

How much can you save?

A quick and simple example: Real savings come from capping liability. One US client learned the hard way: At the time of calculation, their termination liability was almost $1 million, when it could have been capped at $100k if proper employment agreements had been in place from day one.

Start saving and capping today!

A note on Quebec

We do not support Quebec. Here’s why:

  • All employment materials in Quebec must be provided in French.

  • Quebec employment laws differ significantly from other provinces.

  • The cost and complexity make it unfeasible for most US clients.

Many companies choose to exclude Quebec at launch and revisit it later, once their Canadian foundation is set.

Why choose ConnectsUs HR?

  • Since 2006, we have supported US companies hiring in Canada.

  • We translate US HR practices into compliant Canadian frameworks.

  • We deliver fast, practical, and affordable solutions.

  • We’re happy to provide references from satisfied US clients who have successfully set up their Canadian operations with us. Some are listed below.

Premium Tableware Design & Manufacturing (US/Canada)

2025- As a global business with corporate headquarters in the US, ConnectsUs helped us navigate cross-border HR with expertise and practical guidance. They delivered a comprehensive Employee Manual that covered multiple Canadian provinces in 6 weeks, with seamless communication and competitive pricing, ensuring the Manual was accurate, comprehensive, and aligned with our business needs. We are very pleased with the result and highly recommend them to any US company expanding into Canada.

Communication Systems Installations

2025. As a small business with little HR experience, we needed to implement some HR basics. ConnectsUs HR delivered! They built our employee manual, provided contract templates for new hires, and created individual agreements for our existing employees. They even drafted the emails for signatures so all we had to do was press send!

What stood out most was their patience, expert guidance, fair pricing, and ability to deliver on time. Now all of our staff have signed agreements and signed off on the manual. We feel protected, confident we’re doing the right thing, and have a reliable expert to turn to for our ongoing HR support. Highly recommend.

Traffic Management

We worked with ConnectsUs for over 3 years to set up HR for our office and field workers until we sold the business. They supported us with strategic and operational HR and ensured the company was protected and compliant, which was especially valuable during the sale.

Hire them! You won’t be disappointed.

HR services Testimonials - not-for-profit

Not-for-Profit

We originally hired ConnectsUs HR part-time for 3 months to set up our HR and provide transactional HR services for approximately 50 employees. The HR Advisor remained with us for 2 years! And eventually helped us find an full-time HR Manager.

Our assigned advisor had a seat at the senior management table and was skilled at having the tough conversations with us when required and understood how to balance the needs of employees with those of the business.

We had a great experience and highly recommend.
