SEIU-West compiled a brief in response to the Minstry of Labour Relations and Workplace Safety's 'Consultation on Impairment in the Workplace.'
In our submission, we propose that there is a pronounced need for future committed resources to fund research initiatives in Saskatchewan; such initiatives have the potential to inform effective workplace policy, as well as, build awareness and education tools to assist both employers and employees to manage these issues. SEIU-West does not share the appetite of government to employ legislative options for the purposes of addressing safety issues related to substance use and impairment in the workplace.
