I don't know if they would have an impact on retention from a member's perspective. From an organization's perspective, our concern is misapplication of medical information shared from Veterans Affairs that could lead an organization such as the RCMP to make rash decisions with respect to fitness for duty, leading to an unreasonable or early medical discharge. In the retention from the RCMP side, they might be discharging more based on erroneous information. From a morale perspective, the best way to put this is.... Personally, I have trust issues. I think our membership also have trust issues with the RCMP being able to equally and fairly implement health services and occupational health services. That's probably from the morale perspective. They're worried about not being treated fairly or equitably through the RCMP system.
