Saskatchewan’s Occupational Health and Safety Regulations require workplaces to establish and maintain an Occupational Health Committee (OHC). A proactive OHC is essential in recognizing health and safety concerns and recommending strategies to reduce or eliminate risks.

All workplace hazards are preventable and can be identified with a comprehensive workplace inspection. Inspections are the most effective tool for preventing illness and injury. Employers, supervisors, and OHC members are responsible for ensuring hazards are identified and addressed.

A Job Safety Analysis (JSA) is a valuable tool for identifying hazards related to specific work tasks and determining necessary control measures to reduce risks to employees. Safe work practices are an essential component of a Safety Management System. 

IPAC resources are focused on prevention, preparedness, and planning regarding infection control practices for personal care, group, and residential homes across Saskatchewan.

The Workplace Violence Prevention Program can assist healthcare employers in reducing injury rates, increasing employee and patient well-being, and building a strong culture of safety in the workplace.

Resources are available to assist school divisions with creating safer workplaces through the application of the Safety Management System.  All documents and resources are compliant with Saskatchewan’s legislative requirements.
