As part of the hospice team, chaplains support the spiritual needs of the patient and their family - a challenging and rewarding role. Dr Madison Cawdor shares his extensive experience as a United States-based hospice chaplain and explains the role's demands, inc…

Fathers' Use of Parental Leave in a Canadian Law Enforcement Organization
Prior to 2018, Canadian parents had access to 35 weeks of parental leave; but leave use is persistently gendered. We examine employee, employment, and organizational characteristics that influence use of parental leave by men in a Canadian law enforcement organization. Data from 97 managers and 234 male employees were analyzed using an explanatory sequential mixed methods approach. Employees received a top up to 93 percent of their salary when on…

Organizational willingness to grant access to employees can vary, especially when the research topic is seen as controversial or contentious for the employer. This paper explores this methodological challenge using a research example from Manitoba, Canada, which explored the use of parental leave by male employees and the impact of managerial attitudes and…
Assessment of Settlement Services Systems in Western and Northern Canada: Perceptions of Settlement Provider Organizations
In Western Canada, away from cities such as Vancouver, Calgary, Regina, and Winnipeg, where fewer immigrants arrive, newcomers often inject vital lifeblood into local economies, bring new ideas for businesses, and further diversify the ethno-cultural profiles of rural communities. Yet, there is far less research on settlement services available in rural communities and smaller urban centres. This paper explores the perceptions of 159 officials fr…
The effect of work arrangements on perception of work-family balance
This research used a nationally representative sample of women and men in dual-earner families with children from the 1998 and 2005 time-use cycles of Statistics Canada's General Social Survey. The work extends knowledge on the effect of the use of three work arrangements: flexible schedules, shift work and self-employment, on respondents' reported satisfaction with their work-family balance. Results of regression analysis indicated that work arr…
