Know About Responsibilities
Under the law, everyone in the workplace — from employers to front-line workers — has responsibilities for health and safety.
Investigate Incidents
If there is an incident in your workplace in which a worker is injured or could have been seriously injured (i.e., a near miss), both you and WorkSafeBC have specific responsibilities.
Inspect Your Workplace
Regular safety inspections are a cornerstone of a proactive approach to health and safety. Inspections will help you identify hazards so you can take preventive action before an incident occurs.
Hold Safety Meetings
Regular health and safety meetings provide an excellent opportunity to get everyone in your workplace involved in the safety process. Maintaining communication between you, your supervisors, and your workers is crucial for the success of your occupational health and safety (OHS) program.
