Health Services

Employee Health Services (EHS) assists employees who have either a work-related or non-work-related injury or illness. We believe that an employee’s return to productive work is both physically and psychologically important. The organization and the individual benefit during the transition back to full, productive activity. EHS is based on relationships and is founded on trust and mutual respect by and for all stakeholders. EHS supports the mission of Edmonton Catholic Schools by providing practical, professional, and comprehensive services to ill or injured employees. EHS also provides assistance with referrals, case management, planning for return to work and considering possible need for work accommodation. This area looks at individuals from the perspective of addressing the needs of the whole person and respecting the self-worth and dignity of each person.

We believe:

• Our Catholic Christian faith challenges us to holistic health and provides its sustaining vision.
• All employees make a valuable contribution to teaching and learning.
• Healthy employees working in healthy workplaces support positive teaching and learning outcomes.
• An employee's return to productive work is both physically and psychologically important. Both the organization and the individual can benefit during the transition back to full productive activity.
