JOINT HEALTH AND SAFETY COMMITTEE TRAINING
​

As of April 03, 2017 WorkSafeBC requires that all potential joint committee members in BC must receive 8 hours of instruction and training. Empire Safety Solutions is proud to present our 8 hour joint health and safety committee (JOSH Committee) course which meets and exceeds all new WorkSafeBC requirements.

The joint health and safety committee supports the employer's duty to ensure a healthy and safe workplace. The joint committee brings together representatives of the employer and the workers, to identify and help resolve health and safety issues in the workplace. The joint committee plays an important role in your occupational health and safety program, giving workers and employers a way to work together to identify and find solutions to workplace health and safety issues. Any workplace with 20 or more employees must have a health and safety committee, while those with between 10 and 19 workers must have a designated worker health and safety representative. This course aims at helping participants to identify and interpret JHSC member's functions and duties and to carry out their responsibilities to promote workplace health and safety.

Our 8 hour course, will assist employers and participants on how to start-up a committee at your workplace, how to effectively implement a JHSC, duties and functions of members and as a team, and the OHSR regulation. Our course also covers the following topics as required by WorkSafeBC:

The duties and functions of a joint committee
The rules of procedure of the joint committee
The requirements around conducting incident investigations
The requirements around conducting regular workplace inspections, and how to make regular inspections
The requirements around responding to a refusal of unsafe work
The requirements for annually evaluating the joint committee
