Part II of the Canada Labour Code promotes workers’ health and safety in Federally Regulated workplaces. STS Group offers the Work Place Health and Safety Committee training for federal organization.
For workplaces with fewer than 20 workers a Work Place Health and Safety Representative is required. Where there are 20 or more workers, a Work Place Health and Safety committee is required unless an exemption is issued by the Minister of Labour. Notwithstanding the exemption, a Health and Safety Representative is required. In a workplace where there is more than 300 workers, a Policy Health and Safety Committee is required.
All workers acting as a Health and Safety Representative, Work Place Health and Safety Committee Member, or Policy Health and Safety Committee Member must receive training that is specific to their required duties as described by Part II of the Canada Labour Code.
