ORGANIZATION OF WORK AND PROFESSIONAL ISSUES
In the COVID-19 era: withdrawal of regular services and reassignment

During this second wave of the pandemic, local teams can participate in a webinar exploring how withdrawal of regular services (délestage) and reassignment are affecting our members’ professional obligations. Participants will hear about the findings of a survey carried out during the first wave, our analysis of the ministerial plan for the second wave, and APTS recommendations. An official invitation to attend one of three sessions, on October 26, November 6, or November 9, 2020, will be sent to you shortly. One of the sessions will be recorded and made available to anyone unable to attend the live event.
