Area of Interest:

Web
Jointly hosted by Northern Alberta, Southern Alberta, Pacific, Saskatchewan & Manitoba CPBI Regions
Benefit plans can go beyond traditional medical coverage by offering specialized services
that address the mental and emotional well-being of employees, not just their physical
health. This is particularly important in Alberta, where employers have a legal duty to protect
the physical, psychological, and social safety of their workforce.
How to leverage psychological health & safety as a value-add service:
● Understand the Legal Responsibility
● Consider the Potential Opportunities for a Benefits Plan's Role
● What this can look like
● The Positive Outcomes
"By addressing psychosocial factors, we empower employees to actively participate in their well-being journey. Comprehensive health benefits then serve as a vital
foundation, supporting both ongoing health and preventative care." Megan K. Hunter
