Support for Canadian federal public servants
Unions and management are currently negotiating an "Employee Wellness Support Program" (EWSP). The idea is to provide better coverage for absence due to long-term illness (elimination of the waiting period and up to 26 weeks of paid leave). it is intended to complement the current system, where staff acquire sick leave entitlements as they move through the ranks.
