Education Minister John Haggie says government will pay 60 percent.
Early childhood educators and other staff working in regulated child care services in the province now have access to a medical benefits program that is cost shared with government. The Early Learning and Child Care Medical Benefits Program will be supported by the Association of Early Childhood Educators Newfoundland and Labrador, with coverage provided by Blue Cross via Dougan Insurance Group. Education Minister John Haggie says government will pay 60 percent. He says this valued rare group of workers also now have a stable wage grid that is more competitive. He says this will do a lot for recruitment and retention. Medical benefits are optional and available to individuals who work a minimum of 20 hours per week, and have worked a minimum of three months at a regulated child care service participating in the Operating Grant Program
