The CRA Compliance Center now features an AI-powered chatbot—dubbed the Compliance Center Concierge—which helps you find the information you need faster than ever before.
Instead of searching through the pages and pages of guides and resources in our Compliance Center, simply ask your question in plain language:
“What do I need to do to serve alcohol on my patio?”
“How do I claim the Utility Sales Tax Deduction?”
“Which labor posters am I required to display?”
The Concierge instantly searches the CRA’s extensive library of attorney-vetted compliance resources and directs you to the most relevant information!
It’s like having a compliance assistant at your fingertips.
Available now, exclusively for CRA members.
RFL Educational Workshop
In today’s evolving workplace, understanding substance use and how employees experience it is more critical than ever to overcome the stigma and barriers that still exist for supporting employee recovery. Most people know someone who has had some interaction with a substance such as alcohol or drugs. These interactions can range from safe or experimental to compulsive behavior. Regardless of the nature of these interactions, it is important to recognize that substance use is very common, and each interaction carries the potential for increased use and related challenges in the workplace.
This educational workshop provides a comprehensive overview tailored specifically for workplace managers and leaders. Whether you’re looking to enhance your knowledge, create a more supportive work environment, or navigate the challenges of substance use within your team, this foundational session will equip you with the tools and understanding necessary to make a positive difference.
