Formal Hazards Assessment Resources
Hazard Assessments
A good hazard assessment and control process provides a consistent approach for companies to identify hazards, measure associated risk, implement suitable and effective controls to prevent work related injuries.
Two Types of Hazard Assessments:
Formal Hazard Assessments
Site-Specific Hazard Assessments
Legislation
There are 14 jurisdictions in Canada: 1 federal, 10 provincial and 3 territorial – each having its own occupational health and safety legislation outlining the rights and responsibilities of the employer, the supervisor and the worker.
All jurisdictions require employers to conduct assessments, and to either eliminate, or to put controls in place to protect employees against hazards.
