The number of RCMP officers on long-term off-duty sick leave has reached an all-time high, and has become an “area of concern” for frontline officers and senior leadership within the organization, according to a new report.
The Management Advisory Board (MAB), which advises the RCMP commissioner, said in a May report that long-term off-duty sick leave (LTODSL) is “one of the most critical issues” facing the RCMP, as it impacts the operational, financial, and reputational aspects of the organization.
