SEIU-West is the union which represented the majority of Prairie Harm Reduction workers and is gathering information to file a complaint with Employment Standards relating to the closure of PHR and the impact on all workers, whether unionized or not, whether management or not.

If you were working at Prairie Harm Reduction, including Youth Services, Family Support and Community Education, the Safe Consumption Site / Drop in Centre, Kii Kinaahk Village, or the Employment Readiness Program, we would like to invite you to complete this Employment Standards Complaint Form. If you require assistance, you are welcome to contact us. 

Please share this page with any of your former coworkers, so that we can ensure as many workers as possible are included.

Are you worried about paying for prescription medication?

The Special Support Program is a program by the Government of Saskatchewan to assist with the cost of prescription medication. You can ask your pharmacist for the Special Support Program form, or get more information by clicking here.

Did you lose access to counselling services when you were laid off?

Apply for Employment Insurance

Service Canada has contacted SEIU-West to say that they are waiting to process your application for Employment Insurance. They are encouraging all workers to apply, even if you are not sure that you qualify.

Do you have questions about Employment Insurance, or anything else about being laid off?

The Unemployed Workers Help Centre is run by fantastic and knowledgeable people. They can provide information, help you advocate for yourself, and refer you to agencies, organizations or government departments which might be helpful to you. Visit their website by clicking here.

Still have questions?

The SEIU-West Member Resource Centre operates during regular business hours. If you have questions about your layoff from Prairie Harm Reduction which are not answered on this page, you can contact the Member Resource Centre by email at [email protected]
