The federal government is looking for “disability benefit consultants” to assist the Conservatives’ push for public sector sick leave reforms — an issue that will be front and centre as a number of unions head to the negotiating table this year. The consultants will be asked to do everything from advising Treasury Board on the design of the new sick leave system to developing “communications products” singing the praises of the new system to employees and union reps. Treasury Board expects to pay as much as $525,000 over a four-year period for the consultants to help transition the public service to the new system, including interacting “with different stakeholders to explain the benefits of proposed short-term disability plan designs to meet the Government of Canada’s objectives.”
