OH&S Introduction for JOHS Committee members

We are scheduling Introductory Occupational Health and Safety (OH&S) workshops for members and alternates representing HEU on Joint Occupational Health and Safety (JOHS) Committees.

Participants will have the opportunity to:

• discuss their experiences and to examine patterns of OH&S concerns;
• understand the Workers’ Compensation Act and OH&S Regulation requirements;
• understand the structure, roles and functions of the JOHS Committee; and
• learn how to take action and how to apply the Act and Regulation to resolve OH&S concerns.
