BC health and safety legislation

Keep up-to-date on legislative changes and updates that impact health and safety in your workplace.

The Occupational Health and Safety (OHS) Regulation

The Occupational Health and Safety (OHS) Regulation and the Workers Compensation Act outline the legal requirements for workplace health and safety to be met by all workplaces under the jurisdiction of WorkSafeBC. The Regulation promotes occupational health and safety to protect workers and other people in workplaces from work-related risks to their health - including injury, illness, and mental health.

Workers Compensation Act

The Workers Compensation Act establishes the Workers' Compensation Board of B.C. (WorkSafeBC) as an entity and sets out its mandate. The Act provides the legal authority and framework for all WorkSafeBC's activities, including occupational health and safety activities.

The Act was revised in 2019 as part of a standard legislative process to update and modernize language. The Act is organized into eight parts.

See the latest amendments and revisions to the Act.
