Health & Safety

All employers in BC are required to have a health and safety program as required by the Workers Compensation Act. Often, employers aren’t aware of this or are missing vital pieces of program not only to ensure compliance with regulations but also to protect their employees. The requirement for a program applies whether you are a business, organization or school.
