This includes raising the worker threshold from 10 or more to 20 or more workers at a worksite.
New requirements for occupational health and safety programs and committees come into effect today. This includes raising the worker threshold from 10 or more to 20 or more workers at a worksite. Employers with fewer than 20 workers at a worksite require an occupational health and safety policy and representative. Where there are fewer than six workers, the employer is to appoint a workplace health and safety designate. These changes will make it easier for smaller workplaces to comply with the Occupational Health and Safety Act, without compromising their workers. Active occupational health and safety committees in workplaces with between 10 and 19 workers do not need to disband.
