Occupational Health & Safety Workplace Inspections (Toronto, Ontario)

by Addison Aubrey Health And Safety Consulting

Safety is everyone’s responsibility. And that’s something practical more than anything, as there’s no better way to enforce a safe working environment than by educating your staff to uphold the correct policies. SafetyON’s health and safety consultants can help your organization set up a Joint Health & Safety Committee (JHSC). In addition we can also train the JHSC on how to carry out correct inspections and follow up on them in an effective manner. In fact the JHSC is required under the Occupational Health and Safety Act to conduct exactly those such inspections thoroughly once a month, with an entire workplace inspection taking place annually in conjunction with the others.


A detailed inspection report will be submitted to your organization for your review and to take required corrective actions where necessary.  In addition, these reports and records can be utilized by the JHSC to review information and identify trends with regards to the effectiveness of the organization’s health and safety program. Health and safety consultants in Ontario have been striving to promote effective groups across the province that can identify the targeted hot-spot areas of unsafe activity, and then see that it’s effectively addressed.

The reports will contain vital statistical analysis and data including but not limited to the following:

-Your businesses’ current and/or future health and safety training needs

-Any requirements for deeper analysis of detected areas/equipment/policies/etc. of concern

-Documentation regarding injuries sustained in specific areas of the workplace, and their causes

-Outstanding safety concerns for particular work functions or sites and how to address them

-Taking corrective action towards priority issues.

The JHSC will be required to address the above mentioned itemized concerns and prioritize the actionable items at their discretion so they are resolved as efficiently and effectively as possible.
