Please join us for the annual legal update with Lucie LaBoissonnière and Lauren Cicin from McInnes Cooper. We will be doing our format of a half-day session once again. This year, there will be a refresher on workplace investigations. We will address when they should be conducted, what are the hallmarks of a good investigation and other related issues such as procedural fairness, confidentiality, assessing credibility and evidentiary issues.  

In 2017, New Brunswick’s Human Rights Act was amended to include two new prohibited grounds of discrimination: “family status” and “gender identity and expression”. We will address how these amendments might affect the workplace and how HR professionals can be prepared to deal with the duty to accommodate in these types of cases.

The legalization of recreational marijuana scheduled for July 1, 2018 is expected to have some impact on the workplace. We will highlight the potential issues from a health and safety perspective as well as the employer’s duty to accommodate, the scope of drug testing and employees privacy rights.  

Finally, we will be presenting summaries of recent cases of particular interest to members of CPHR New Brunswick, on a wide range of issues related to the workplace, focusing on how they might impact employers. We hope that you will join us.

At this workshop, a panel made up of professionals from the New Brunswick Employer Support Services, New Brunswick Employment Standards, and Cox and Palmer will present a variety of information, updates, and “hot topics” including family status, gender, disabilities, and more. The workshop will include presentations, discussions, and a Q and A. This workshop is not to be missed because of its diverse topics and leaders providing up-to-date key information. 

Employers are increasingly challenged with difficult decisions on how to address issues of substance use in the workplace, including balancing public safety, employee productivity, human rights compliance, and providing effective and appropriate employee support among others. Proposed legislation to legalize cannabis has created an area of uncertainty as employers and employees attempt to discern between medical and recreational use and the impact on fitness for duty.

In response to increased demand from employers, practitioners, and other stakeholders wanting more information on, and knowledge of how to address, substance use affecting the workplace, the Canadian Centre on Substance Use and Addiction (CCSA) conducted a broad study to better understand the issue and make recommendations.

This webinar will set the context of substance use and the workplace. The CCSA presenters will then discuss the findings from the study, which included an environmental scan of current policies, national survey, and key informant interviews. The discussion will finish with suggestions on how to apply some of the knowledge gained from the study in the workplace and ways to move forward.

All employers want a healthy and safe workplace. Safety at work can be negatively impacted by many factors, not the least of which is substance abuse. While 10% of the population self-identifies as having an active addiction, the reality of use is much higher and presents a real and present concern in the workplace. Drug and alcohol abuse in the workplace leads to injuries, decreased morale and lost time, to name a few. Employers’ costs related to human resources and health and medical benefits increase substantially, and the negative effect on employees impacts productivity and profitability in countless ways.

With the availability of medically authorized cannabis for medical purposes and with legalization of marijuana legislation just around the corner, Human Resource Professionals are being asked to ensure proper policies and programs are in place to address workplace health and safety concerns – for all employees.  Senior Leadership as well as employees will be looking to HR to guide them when substance use/abuse issues arise. What we do and how we do it will set precedent and needs to be established using logical processes reflective of best practices.

Learning Objectives

Join us for this workshop as presenter, Nadine Wentzell, prepares us as HR Professionals to address the critical issue of managing substance use and abuse in the workplace.  The session will cover the following:
- Recognition and how to address issues
- Workplace Drug and Alcohol Policy & Programs
- Employers rights and responsibilities under that policy
- When medical prescriptions cause safety concerns – What rights does the employer have?

Return to Work Programs

Processes to follow
- Writing a comprehensive agreement
- What to say to whom & when, and
- How to re-integrate for success/minimize relapse

Participants will leave this session with strategies to address substance use and abuse in the workplace, templates of example policies, and other resources to help guide HR Professionals through this topic.

Does the state of the economy affect the suicide rate?
I’m concerned about my colleague at work…what should I say?
I’m stressed out at work and not sure I can take much more…

Research tells us that there is a direct 0.79% correlation between the unemployment rate and the rate of suicide deaths.  We also know that 70% of all suicide deaths in Canada are among working aged adults (ages 30-64).

The Mental Health Commission of Canada alerts us that businesses in Canada lost $6 billion in productivity costs to due to poor mental health in 2011. The human costs are equally as severe: stress, anxiety, absenteeism, loss of productivity, substance abuse, sick leave, strain on other colleagues, short-term disability and more.

Centre for Suicide Prevention works with corporate and public sector partners to educate and train employees and teams on simple steps for suicide awareness and prevention in the workplace.

A key component of the Federal Liberal party’s election mandate was the legalization of recreational marijuana. While it is believed that a fully functional legislative and regulatory scheme ending the prohibition of cannabis will not be ready for some time, the prospects of legalized cannabis in the workplace has some companies feeling more than a little dazed and confused. But cannabis, at least in some instances, is already legal and is already in our workplaces. In fact, in 2014 it was estimated that there were 40,000 people in Canada with valid “authorizations to possess” – a number that has been growing rapidly. All of this begs the question: what are the risks and challenges that cannabis presents to the workplace in a changing legislative and cultural landscape?
