Ministry of Labour
The Ministry of Labour Inspectors have powers to enforce and obtain compliance with health and safety requirements. Compliance orders describe actions the employer is obliged to take in order to comply with specific legal requirements. Where there is immediate risk of injury to a worker, a “stop work” order is issued to prevent work from continuing until compliance is achieved. Inspectors can also issue tickets under the Provincial Offenses Act or initiate prosecution for non-compliance. We’ll help your team understand the concerns the MOL and work together so a stop work order doesn’t happen on your site.
Health and Safety Programs
A workplace needs a health and safety program to comply with the Ontario Occupational Health and Safety Act, in addition to setting out safe work practices and procedures to be followed to prevent workplace injuries and illnesses.
Your organization must have in place written Occupational Health and Safety policies, practices and procedures. The policies would demonstrate and document that your organization carried out workplace safety audits, identified hazardous practices and sought to fix hazardous conditions as well as making the necessary changes to correct the conditions. Organizations must provide employees with information to enable them to work safely.
Safety Meetings
A safety meeting is a proactive system that reminds workers that health and safety on the job is of the utmost importance. Each talk could discuss potential hazards at the workplace and how to reduce them. Safety meetings demonstrate the communication between employers and workers to achieve a healthy and safe working environment.
