Employer Obligations
Under the Health Professions Act (section 57), employers are required to report to the Complaints Director any terminations, suspensions or resignations resulting from possible unprofessional conduct of regulated members who are providing professional services on either a full-time or part-time basis, as paid or unpaid employees, consultants, contractors or volunteers.
When these notifications are received, the Complaints Director treats the employer as the complainant and treats the notification as a complaint. The Complaints Director then decides how to handle the matter.
