There are now over 100 Nova Scotia businesses that have signed the Nova Scotia Health and Safety Leadership Charter – committing senior leaders and organizations to make Nova Scotia the healthiest and safest place to work in Canada!
A further reminder to register for this Fall Conference. To date about a third of the Charter Signatories have registered and a “gentle” reminder that it is the commitment of all Charter Signatories to register for the Fall Conference.
Your Steering Committee has made tentative arrangements to combine our Fall Conference with the International Safety Culture Summit being held in Halifax on October 11-12, 2017.
In any given week, 500,000 Canadians are unable to work due to mental health problems or illnesses. Workplace stress, burnout and depression are on the rise. One in three workplace disability claims are related to mental health problems or illnesses.
Your Steering Committee held its second meeting of 2017 on February 22, 2017 at the Leeds St. campus of the Nova Scotia Community College. Significant Progress was made towards the objectives for 2017.
