As regards labour standards, as I explained, they have a signed contract in accordance with Quebec's Act respecting labour standards. So they are supposed to work 40 hours a week, and overtime must be paid. The employers aren't necessarily in bad faith. We're not saying that all employers are mean and don't comply with the act. The employers themselves are very uncomfortable with the program. They tell us that the workers live at their homes. At what point do we decide that they stop working? At what point do we say that they are working? We tell them that they have to have a log book to record the number of hours.
The current provisions of the program make it very difficult to say how many hours they work. In the majority of cases surveyed by the association, more than 90% of the time, overtime is not paid. The live-in caregiver lives at the employer's home, at the employer's private residence. As a result, the employment relationship is very hard to monitor. I don't think the government could find other solutions than the one you've proposed, that is to say that they live outside in a residence paid for by the employer. Living at the employer's home makes the relationship by private agreement very hard to manage.
