WING STANDING ORDER - INTERIM POLICY
PARTICIPATION IN INTERSECTION SPORTING ACTIVITIES AT 14 WING GREENWOOD
References: A. E-mail from CFPSA DPE TO 14 Wing FSD dated 9 Nov 01
B. Annex D to NDHQ Instr ADM (PER) 2/93 1 Apr 93 (enclosed)
C. CFAO 50-1
D. CFAO 50-3
E. 14 Wing Recreation Card Application Form
1. It is my intent that all employees of 14 Wing Greenwood be afforded the
opportunity to participate in physical fitness and sporting activities as a
means of ensuring good personal fitness and group morale.
2. To that end, all Regular Force Members, Class A, B and C Reservists, Public
Service employees, NPF employees and Casual employees and Dependants are
authorized to participate in Intersection Sports under the conditions at
paragraph 4 below.
3. A study has been made of the insurance coverage available to all personnel
participating in intersection sports. The conclusions are as follows:
a. for Regular Force, Class B and C reservists - full coverage is provided by
DND;
b. for Class A reservists - coverage is provided in accordance with reference B;
c. for Public Service employees - WCB (Workers’ Compensation Board) and the
terms of their Collective Agreement provide coverage. This coverage was not
considered sufficient to fully protect an employee, if they were badly injured;
d. for NPF employees - WCB (Workers’ Compensation Board) and the terms of their
Collective Agreement provide coverage. This coverage was not considered
sufficient to fully protect an employee, if they were badly injured;
e. RCMP Officers shall be part of the Rec Association to have access to the
Consolidated Insurance Plan (CIP) of NPF;
f. for casual employees - no coverage is provided;
g. for dependants of Regular Force, Class A, B and C Reservists, Public and NPF
Employees - no coverage is provided;
h. Public Service Employees, NPF Employees, Casual Employees, Dependants and
RCMP should ensure that their participation in non-work related activities such
as sports, games, etc are covered by their personal insurance plan and are in
accordance with such policies as Collective Agreements, WCBs; and
i. All participants are personally responsible to ensure that they are
adequately covered for insurance purposes, ie. SISSIP, WCB, CIP, Collective
Agreement or Personal Insurance Plan.
4. To ensure all personnel have adequate coverage, the following minimal
conditions will be put in place immediately and are a prerequisite for
participation in Intersection Sports:
a. Regular Force, Class B and C Reservists - nil;
b. Class A Reservists - Unit CO must ensure a form CF 895 (Attendance Register)
listing all members of the team is completed. The onus remains on the Unit CO is
to ensure that Class A members have signed the form prior to each game/practice;
c. Public Service employees - must be an Ordinary Member of the 14 Wing
Greenwood Recreation Program;
d. NPF employees - must be an Ordinary Member of the 14 Wing Greenwood
Recreation Program;
e. RCMP Officers must be a member of the 14 Wing Greenwood Recreation Program;
f. Casual employees - must be an Associate Member of the 14 Wing Greenwood
Recreation Program;
g. Dependants of Regular Force, Class A, B and C Reservists, Public and NPF
Employees - must be a Regular/Ordinary Member of the 14 Wing Greenwood
Recreation Program; and
h. Ordinary and Regular Membership in the 14 Wing Greenwood Recreation Program
places the employee under the insurance Umbrella of the Consolidated Insurance
Plan (CIP), which will Cover all Non-Public Property and all NPF activities of
the CF.
5. As per references B and C, there is currently no provision for Class A
Reserves to use 14 Wing fitness facilities when they are not on duty. I support
the idea that Class A Reserves should have the opportunity to stay fit and a
means should be provided to do this, but such does not exist at this time. This
means that if Class A Reserves are to have sufficient insurance coverage to make
use of 14 Wing Fitness Facilities, they must pay a fee to fall under the
coverage provided to the 14 Wing Greenwood Recreation Program Consolidated
Insurance Plan (CIP). I cannot waive this fee due to the nature of the insurance
plan, but it is within my purview to set the amount of this fee. I have
determined that the fairest and least onerous way to do this is to link the fee
to that paid by the dependants of Regular Members. As per reference E, this is
the lowest fee offered.
6. To encourage participation and negate the negative aspect of members of the
CF having to pay a fee, I have expanded this offer to include the dependants of
the Class A Reserve. All Class A Reserves must join the 14 Wing Greenwood
Recreation Program and make full use of the rates prescribed in reference E
under regular membership.
7. When a sporting activity is taking place during normal working hours, the
chain of command has the authority to cancel participation for pressing
operational matters.
8. Dependants of Regular/Ordinary Members must be 16 years of age or older.
9. The CIP covers all non-public property and all non-public fund activities of
the CF.
