Alcohol and Drug Testing in Alberta: An Update - Part of our OHS Breakfast Seminar Series
Employers are in a hard spot when it comes to testing employees for alcohol and drug impairment. On the one hand, impaired workers represent a potential workplace hazard which must be identified and controlled by employers. On the other hand, human rights and privacy legislation restricts what an employer can do to identify and control the hazard. What is an employer to do? This 1.5 hour breakfast seminar will provide an overview of the issues and review some of the creative approaches recently taken by some employers in challenging the status quo – including using the criminal law. Two leading practitioners in this area, Hugh McPhail (Edmonton) and Phil Ponting (Calgary), will head this review panel and provide their insights into the problem.
Edmonton: Date TBA - 7:30 a.m. - 9:00 a.m.
Calgary: Date TBA - 7:30 a.m. - 9:00 a.m.
$150 registration fee.
