Health and Safety / Bill C-4 One Day Course

Are you a Health and Safety rep or member of the Joint Health and Safety Committee in your workplace on behalf of your PSAC local who has already taken a previous Health and Safety CLC Part II course?

If so, then this course is for you! Come and learn about the draconian changes that have been made to the Canada Labour Code Part II – Occupational Health and Safety by the conservative government. These changes affect all federally regulated employees. Here in BC that includes everyone except for the Island Commissionaires and the First Nations Health Authority (both of which are covered by provincial legislation).

The PSAC BC Region is offering the Health & Safety Bill C-4 Update course on:

• Saturday, November 22, 2014 from 9:00 – 4:30 at the Victoria RO for all PSAC Vancouver Island members - details & registration
• Saturday, November 29, 2014 from 9:00 – 4:30 at the Vancouver RO for all PSAC BC Mainland members - details & registration

Preference will be given to existing Health and Safety Committee members who have already completed the H&S CLC Part II course … one person per local or workplace committee. The application deadline for both courses is Friday, November 14. The course facilitator will be James Little, PSAC Regional Rep/H&S Rep.

Please note that we intend to offer this course or a similar course again in 2015 so if you are not selected or are unable to attend this year, you may have another opportunity.
