The Canadian Association of Professional Employees (CAPE) is releasing today the results of a survey that took place earlier this year, between March 13 and April 28, amongst its RCMP members. The survey aimed at getting a clearer picture of the working conditions, regional differences, and top issues facing these members.
“There was a need to better assess our RCMP members’ unique situation and to understand discrepancies across sociodemographic indicators,” said CAPE President Mr. Camille Awada. “This survey sheds light on various issues that require more attention, for example members’ perspective on health and safety in the workplace.”
Areas covered by the survey included demographics, telework practices, working conditions and COVID-19 impacts, harassment and discrimination, occupational health and safety, and deeming. CAPE will be examining each of these areas to ensure it can best represent its members and their interests with their employer.

Over 63% of CAPE RCMP members participated in this survey.
With more than 25,000 members, the Canadian Association of Professional Employees (CAPE) is one of the largest public sector unions in Canada — dedicated to advocating on behalf of federal employees in the Economics and Social Science Services and Translation groups, as well as employees of the Library of Parliament, the Office of the Parliamentary Budget Officer and some members of the RCMP.
