Is your workplace safe? Does your Health and Safety Committee do everything they can to help to mitigate risks of occupational injury and minimize employee injury and absenteeism? Are they considering the Mental Health of your employees in addition to Physical Hazards? If not, then they aren’t minimizing injury and absenteeism. Mental Health issues are now the leading cause of disability in Canada. The Standard for Psychological Health & Safety in the Workplace provides a framework for preventing Mental Health injury at work. Adherence to these standards will help to protect your employee from all workplace hazards.
