Discuss an Arranged ExaminationPolygraph law in British Columbia
Following the Supreme Court of Canada ruling in R. v. Béland (1987), polygraph results are generally inadmissible in British Columbia courts. Polygraphs are nevertheless used extensively by the RCMP and municipal police forces during investigations, by defence lawyers for case preparation, and in private and corporate investigations.
British Columbia does not have legislation specifically regulating workplace polygraph testing. Employers must comply with the BC Human Rights Code and the Personal Information Protection Act (PIPA). Polygraph testing in employment contexts is subject to privacy and human rights considerations.
