An article on the Ontario government’s return-to-office mandate for provincial employees was the most-read story on BenefitsCanada.com this past week.

Here are the top five human resources, benefits, pension and investment stories of the last week:

1. My Take: Ontario’s latest return-to-work mandate is misinformed, short-sighted

2. Ontario Teachers’ investing US$40 million in HR platform, PSP Investments and HOOPP backing $500 million AI firm raise

3. Nova Scotia tackling rise in psychological injuries with new workplace harassment legislation

4. Vancity using data to support employees’ financial, mental health amid rising cost of living

5. CPPIB returns 1% in fiscal Q1 2026, net assets total $731.7 billion
