OHS Resource Centre

The new provincewide OHS Resource Centre will streamline Joint Occupational Health and Safety Committee (JOHSC) work by making it easier to plan meetings, take notes, make recommendations, and take action with an accessible record of the work. More than 1,300 organizations, from health authorities and non-profit health organizations, representing more than 300,000 people working in healthcare will benefit from this initiative.
