Get Involved! Farm Freedom and Safety Engagement Ongoing
The Government of Alberta is looking for input to help shape the future of workplace legislation on farms and ranches. Take the online survey by August 31, 2019 and share your thoughts on the following:
- Employment Standards: explore flexibility on rules like hours of work, holiday and vacation pay, days of rest, minimum wage and youth employment
- Occupational Health and Safety: indentify basic safety standards and any special requirements
- Workers Compensation: explore choice of market insurance or WCB and identify basic coverage standards such as medical support, back to work support, and loss of income protection
- Labour Relations: identify any areas of improvement under the Labour Relations Code
