Working together with you and your team

Therefore, consulting and administration in Occupational Health and Safety (OH&S) is here to help you. Not only is it one of my specialty services, with over 30 years in construction I can help. Consulting with you on your site's needs is best done with you on-site. Some questions can be answered over the phone, however, a site visit is more beneficial. Without delay, the work conducted at this company is here to serve you and your employees.

Where to get Information

Certainly, you can always call WCB Alberta or one of the many associations within your trade group. They are an excellent source for information and consultation. However, most of the time you require a site visit and answers right away. That's when a private OHS professional might be the best way for you to get what you want right away. This service for the most part is not free, yet most advice on the phone is. Site visits are billable by the hour or contract, and well worth the money.

Regulations

It doesn't matter if you're building a single-family home, a large 100-unit condominium, a commercial shopping center, or just doing a small renovation. Safety is Safety on a Construction Site. The WorkSafe BC regulations apply to all. Don't get caught with your pants down. If you are not compliant with the provincial OHS safety regulations, you could be in a lot of trouble if an Occupational Safety Officer from WorkSafe shows up for an unannounced inspection. As a matter of fact, you could receive one or many notices including fines. That being said, one of the worst, and most time-consuming is a "Stop Work Order".

Results of a Stop Work Order

Not only are they inconvenient for you, but workers and subcontractors as well. Equally important is, this situation can create a bad reputation for a Prime Contractor or Developer. That in turn might stop some of the very best sub-trades from wanting to work on future projects. There is one thing most don't associate with Site Safety and that is this. Safety is Public Relations. Nowadays everybody has access to the internet and social media. If a company gets slapped by a governing body, that can get around the industry in not weeks or days, but hours. Why risk it? It all starts with a great safety program and manual, building a great safety culture within your company.
