👏We are one step closer to eliminating sick notes in Manitoba! Thank you to Minister .marcelino for introducing legislation to eliminate sick notes, which will move Manitoba from worst to first when it comes to clear, consistent limits on sick notes.
We have been working hard to educate and support employers to shift away from sick notes in anticipation of this legislation, including creating a free toolkit with HR professionals available at DoctorsNotes.ca. We encourage the government to consider making this legislation take effect sooner than six months, recognizing the months of notice and support already provided to employers.
And thanks to the many partners for supporting a change to reduce unnecessary paperwork and free up physician time to see more patients. Cheers to , , , and many others.
