Our Guiding Principles

CPHR Alberta Strategic Plan

With the guidance of the CPHR Alberta Board of Directors, the Association finalized our first-ever Strategic Plan in 2020. Through input from members and our stakeholder community, we were able to identify a number of themes that have shaped our strategic priorities for the Association moving forward.

PROUD SUPPORTER OF CANADA'S RESERVE FORCE

With Glowing Hearts

CPHR Alberta has successfully been accepted into the With Glowing Hearts program. This initiative underscores our commitment to supporting reservists within our workforce and highlights the invaluable contributions they make to both our organization and the community. 

POLICY TEMPLATE

Policy Template

We have created a policy template that members can use to implement their own reservist leave policies. This template outlines the obligations of both the organization and the reservist, ensuring compliance with federal and provincial legislation. It includes details on eligibility, vacation days, pay, benefits, and procedures for requesting and returning from leave.
