New requirements for creating workplace emergency response plans for employees with disabilities will come into force on May 1, 2020, for all employers in Manitoba, including newcomer-serving organizations.

The Disabilities Issues Office (DIO) has created a Workplace Emergency Response Toolkit to help organizations prepare.
