Most employment standards claims involve unpaid earnings.
The new web page includes the names of approximately 1,700 employers with unsatisfied claims for earnings totalling over $14 million.
Government officials say employers can have their names removed from the list by paying the earnings as directed.
The webpage is http://employment.alberta.ca/sfw/esjudgments.asp
