  • Article NO RIGHT to BE SAFE: JUSTIFYING the EXCLUSION OF
    Socialist Studies / Études socialistes 8 (2) Autumn 2012 Copyright © 2012 The Author(s) Article NO RIGHT TO BE SAFE: JUSTIFYING THE EXCLUSION OF ALBERTA FARM WORKERS FROM HEALTH AND SAFETY LEGISLATIONS BOB BARNETSON Associate Professor of Labour Relations. Faculty of Humanities and Social Sciences, Athabasca University.1 Abstract Alberta remains the only Canadian province to exclude agricultural workers from the ambit of its occupational health and safety laws. Consequently, farm workers have no right to know about workplace safety hazards and no right to refuse unsafe work, thereby increasing their risk of a workplace injury. This study uses qualitative content analysis to identify three narratives used by government members of the legislative assembly between 2000 and 2010 to justify the continued exclusion of agricultural workers from basic health and safety rights. These narratives are: (1) education is better than regulation, (2) farms cannot be regulated, and (3) farmers don’t want and can’t afford regulation. Analysis of these narratives reveals them to be largely invalid, raising the question of why government members rely upon these narratives. The electoral rewards associated with maintaining this exclusion may comprise part of the explanation. Keywords agriculture, health, safety, policy, Canada Introduction Alberta is the only Canadian province that continues to exclude agricultural workers from the ambit of its occupational health and safety legislation. This exclusion 1 Bob Barnetson teaches labour relations at Athabasca University in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada. His research focuses on the political economy of employment regulation in Alberta as it affected workplace injury as well as child, farm and migrant workers.

  • The Construction of Migrant Work and Workers by Alberta Legislators, 2000-2011.” Canadian Ethnic Studies, 47(1): Pp
    Foster, Jason, and Bob Barnetson. (2015). “The Construction of Migrant Work and Workers by Alberta Legislators, 2000-2011.” Canadian Ethnic Studies, 47(1): pp. 107-131. https://doi.org/10.1353/ces.2015.0009. The Construction of Migrant Work and Workers by Alberta Legislators, 2000-2011 Abstract This paper uses narrative analysis to explore how government members of the Alberta Legislative Assembly (MLAs) “constructed” migrant work and migrant workers in legislature and media statements between 2000 and 2011. Government MLAs asserted that migrant work (1) was economically necessary and (2) posed no threat to Canadian workers. Government MLAs also asserted that international migrant workers (3) had questionable occupational, linguistic or cultural skills and (4) caused negative social and economic impacts in Canada. Taken individually, these narratives appear contradictory, casting migrant work as good but migrant workers as bad. Viewed together, these narratives comprise an effort to dehumanize temporary and permanent international migrant workers. This (sometimes racialized) “othering” of migrant workers justifies migrant workers’ partial citizenship and suppresses criticism of their poor treatment. Keywords: migrant workers, Canada, Alberta, political economy, narrative analysis Word count: 8362 The Construction of Migrant Work and Workers 1 Introduction Like many jurisdictions, the Canadian province of Alberta saw significant growth in its population of international migrant workers—as well as rampant mistreatment of these workers—between 2000 and 2011. Provincial government legislators frequently made demonstrably false statements justifying this growth and discounting this mistreatment (Barnetson & Foster 2013). The Alberta discourse around temporary and permanent international migrant workers hinted at a seeming contradiction: government members of the Legislative Assembly (MLAs) of Alberta often seemed bullish on migrant work, but critical of migrant workers.
