In this short episode of The JD Fix, host Heather Fenty breaks down what Quebec’s Bill 96 means for HR software companies and talent leaders operating in Canada.

🔍 What We Cover:

The basics of Bill 96 and its update to Quebec’s Charter of the French Language

What “software compliance” really means — and why it includes both candidate-facing and admin-side interfaces

How HR tech vendors (including Ongig) are adapting by adding a French user interface (UI)

Why localization is not just about compliance — it’s about inclusion and user experience

What global HR and product teams can learn from Quebec’s approach to language accessibility

💡 Key Takeaways:

If your HR tools are used in Quebec, they must be fully available in French — no exceptions.

Compliance is just one piece of a bigger picture: building inclusive, multilingual experiences for global teams.

Ongig’s new French UI is designed to make switching languages as simple as turning on dark mode.

Expect to see more multilingual UIs across HR tech as companies expand globally.
