A source whose Saskatchewan business applied for the contract said they hoped the province would have supported local jobs.
According to a source who says their Saskatchewan business applied for the contract but was declined, they had hoped the province would choose their company to support local jobs.
The SHA said the vast majority of the 300 full-time-equivalent staff were contracted through CHL. While the health authority said the company employs people from a number of provinces, no one from Saskatchewan was employed for the contract. The Leader-Post made repeated requests to contact the company to seek more information but never heard back before publication.Article content
The SHA said on Feb. 8 this outbreak management work and the investigation of severe cases only is not suitable for a “remote supplemental workforce team.” “This should be happening in the public system, but if it is happening privately, we have companies in Saskatchewan that can do this work,” he said.Article content
The source said they can’t further support the local economy when contracts are being awarded to companies out east.
