Description of the Requirement:
The Correctional Service of Canada (CSC) has a requirement for the provision of professional services under Stream 2: Business consulting/change management services. The work will involve the following:
Background
The Correctional Service Canada (CSC) operates federal correctional institutions and community offices across Canada, where employees are exposed to a diverse range of occupational hazards. These risks stem from direct interaction with incarcerated individuals, complex security operations, administrative responsibilities, and institutional health and safety challenges. This high risk, complex environment operates in CSC facilities across multiple provinces and territories, and has resulted in increasing psychological injury claims, Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) risks, and long duration absences for employees at CSC. The resulting insurable claims are subject to various Workers’ Compensation Board (WCB) regimes.
Objective
To provide CSC with a comprehensive, evidence based assessment of WCB claim drivers, costs, operational practices related to WCB claims, and governance, with actionable recommendations to reduce WCB costs while maintaining legal compliance and supporting employee health and recovery.
The work must include benchmarking with comparable federal departments and large public sector employers, analysis of cross jurisdictional WCB policies, options for prevention and case management, resourcing models, operational approaches, and psychological injury management practices
