The Saskatchewan Health Authority (SHA) has faced significant criticism in recent months due to payroll system failures that have affected healthcare workers across the province.
The introduction of a new Administrative Information Management System (AIMS), designed to handle essential HR functions such as payroll, expense reports, and invoices, has led to widespread frustration among employees and calls for investigation from both political leaders and unions.
The AIMS system was initially scheduled for implementation in 2021 but encountered difficulties that delayed its launch until November 2022. Even then, the system’s rollout was unsuccessful, forcing the SHA to revert to its old payroll system temporarily.
