Program Development

Your Program. Your Way. Our Profession. Added Protection.

According to the Ontario Occupational Health and Safety Act, employers are required to generate an Occupational Health and Safety Policy and Program, and maintain this annually. With so many business owners focusing on sustaining their business in these challenging times, the overall process can be intimidating and daunting for those with little or no health and safety knowledge.

Tenders from developers, municipalities, builders and other facilitators alike are requiring Subcontractors and Contractors programs before they undertake work on their projects. Many require a policy and program as part of their contractor subcontrator agreements to diminish liability and assign accountability. 

In the event of an accident or incident, employers are required to demonstrate they have a program and, if not, may be ordered to have it generated — increasing your overall cost burdens in increased WSIB premiums, legal fees, downtime and other expenses unaccounted for. Being prepared saves money and time, keeps your organization working and, most of all, provides clear information to your workers on how to keep them safe.

AS a value add, upon endorsement and completion of your program, we also register, licence and copyright the end product to protect you from plagiarism and pirating of your document.
