The Employee and Family Assistance Program is a confidential, professional counselling program in collaboration with Telus Health (formerly LifeWorks) for employees, commissioners and members of their immediate family.

Even though we are most often able to deal with the problems that are causing us stress, sometimes the personal problems we face get a little more complicated. In some cases, these problems can compromise our ability to function properly at home or at work.

To deal with these types of situations, the Employee and Family Assistance Program offers a free confidential and professional consultation service by licensed therapists who have a great deal of clinical experience in supporting others.

This program also includes:

• Fitness and nutritional support
• Legal resources and advice
• Total wellbeing assessment
• Therapeutic and family counselling
• Financial counselling
• Discounts at popular retailers
• Resources and articles

Provincial Law 87 is an Act designed to facilitate the disclosure of wrongdoings in public organizations. The disclosure of wrongdoings is a fundamental component in ensuring integrity in the public administration. Recognizing that people working within an organization or who work with such people are often best placed to become “whistleblowers”, Western Québec’s By-Law 37 is intended to provide information on the mechanism for facilitating the disclosure of wrongdoings within our school board which complies with the Act to facilitate the disclosure of wrongdoings relating to public bodies (LQ 2016, c 3), hereinafter the “Act”.

The Act, as well as our By-Law 37, provides for the implementation of a parallel disclosure system within public bodies allowing staff the option of reporting wrongdoings either internally or to the Quebec Ombudsman through a secure online form. In all cases, these provide protection against reprisals for disclosures by staff who cooperate in reviews and investigations.

Essentially, at any time, school board staff may disclose information to the Officer responsible, indicating that a wrongdoing has been committed or is about to be committed in relation to the school board.
