The NLCSA is looking for construction industry representatives to help:
- Identify and address regional health and safety issues across the province; and
- Support and organize health and safety initiatives in your area.
We are establishing regional safety committees who will meet on a quarterly basis, representing the following areas in NL:
- Labrador West
- Happy Valley Goose Bay
- Western Newfoundland
- Central Newfoundland
- Avalon Peninsula
“These Regional Safety Committees will be a great way for us to better understand diverse perspectives, develop tailored resources, and improve the communication of safety information across the province” says Cherie Whelan, NLCSA CEO. “I was part of a Regional Safety Committee in Fort McMurray, Alberta with the ACSA (Alberta Construction Safety Association) when I lived there. It was such an effective platform for the construction industry to address, share, and learn from safety issues raised at the meetings. I’m looking forward to having a similar collaborative network of dedicated construction representatives. Having Regional Safety Committees will help to ensure that NLCSA resources and offerings are inclusive, effective, and reflective of the needs and concerns of the entire province.
At 10:00 am, on Thursday, August 22nd, join us for a 1 hour webinar to learn more about NLCSA Regional Safety Committees.
In this webinar, we will cover:
- What is Regional Safety Committee;
- Why we are establishing them;
- What our plans are for these committees; and
- How anyone who has an interest in improving health and safety in the construction industry can get involved.
