Occupational Safety
Occupational safety should be your number one attention at your company. Standards should be well developed, and commonly known. Training for all occupational functions should be adequate, and all hazards should be fully explained prior to any work being performed. Safety reviews should be ongoing allowing for continual improvement.
There are likely regulations in your area that govern safe practices. Laws have been established to eliminate personal injuries from the workplace. In the United States, the Occupational and Safety Health Act (OSHA) governs workplace safety. In Canada, the Workplace Safety and Health Division of your provincial government can assist you. The Workplace Safety & Insurance Board can assist residents of Ontario.
Should you need to communicate any safety issues to your employers, without needing to identify yourself to your employer, please use the Anonymous Employee system. We can put you in touch with someone in your area that can assist you. There are a number of private and governmental agencies that can help. Safety is job one.
