An OHS committee is an important way to improve conditions in the workplace (and a requirement for organizations with ten employees or more). The committee provides a forum for employees and management to work together to solve health and safety issues or concerns.

An effective committee can help prevent injury and illness on the job and increase awareness of health and safety issues among workers, supervisors, and managers.

Made Safe NL’s safety advisors can help you create your OHS committee or strengthen your current committee by providing guidance, mentoring, training, and coaching.
