Working conditions platforms

Here's what the 2023 Alberta election parties are promising.
We don't have any UCP policies on Working conditions.

NDP

  • Restore presumptive PTSD for injuries in a traumatic event in the workplace
  • Give Fort McMurray firefighters retroactive access to WCB coverage

    "Giving Fort McMurray firefighters retroactive access to WCB coverage through legislation. This will include respiratory illnesses and cancer coverage retroactive to 2003. And we’ll consult with other essential personnel groups that occupied Fort McMurray at the same time to provide the same coverage." — albertandp.ca, retrieved 2023-05-27

  • Legislate a definition of catastrophic events

    "Legislating a Catastrophic Event definition, to ensure all workers involved in such events have access to similar coverage without needing legislative changes." — albertandp.ca, retrieved 2023-05-27
