The PSAC Regional Offices would like to invite you to participate in an Education Forum to better understand your education needs and hopes for Fall 2020.   Covid #19 has brought about many changes in our lives – how we work, engage with others, and our union activists.  Prairies PSAC staff have been very busy with helping members through numerous challenges during these times by providing Health and Safety information, helping members adjust to new worksite realities and work from home.  

In order to address many of the concerns in our workplaces with the constantly evolving responses to the COVID-19 pandemic, the PSAC Prairie Region offered an interactive webinar detailing employer responsibilities, and employee options to protect themselves from exposure, most importantly through a worker’s right to refuse dangerous work, by reviewing the legislation for both federally and provincially legislated workplaces. We also reviewed other actions workplaces can take to protect the health and safety of all.
