News and Events
People working in healthcare are twice as likely to be injured on the job compared to the average B.C. worker and health care aides are four times more likely to be injured at work.
Health care teams are more likely to face a violent incident at work than people in law enforcement. And unfortunately, mental health injuries are highest in healthcare work too. Analyzing data, looking at root causes and collaborating on solutions will help us all better care for the people who care for us.
