The end of the year is a great time to start thinking about the requirement to review all your health and safety programs.
Whether you review your program all at once or break it down month by month, all elements of your health and safety program must be reviewed at least once a year.
We have resources to support your health and safety program, from our Injury Management Program Manual, Webinars for leaders, safety huddles, sector-specific training and education and our Tailored Outreach Program (TOP).
First time evaluating your health and safety program? WorkSafeBC has an Annual Review Evaluation Tool to get you started.
