Medical information is some of the most personal data belonging to an individual. If, however, you are ill or injured and need to request leave or accommodation, you will need to share medical information with SFU. So how much should you share and how can you ensure that your medical information stays private?
We've been discussing what APSA does for its members. We've covered negotiations, advocacy and this month I'd like to talk about APSA's initiatives on education and professional development.
So what exactly are the types of education and professional development APSA offers?
Each month, our Advocacy Committee answers your questions about the AD 10 polices (aka, your terms and conditions of employment.)
