Abstract

Original Air Date: Wednesday, February 20, 2013

Farm workers are not currently included in Alberta's provincial labour legislation. Should farms have to abide by the same workplace regulations other Alberta employers must follow?

We talk to:
Don Voaklander, from the Alberta Centre for Injury Control and Research; David Swann, liberal MLA; Lynn Jacobson, from the Wild Rose Agricultural Producers.
