LEARNING TASK 5 : Use the Occupational Health and Safety Regulation

Using the OHS Regulation

The Occupational Health & Safety (OHS) Regulation exists to protect workers and other persons present at workplaces from work-related risks to their health, safety, and well-being. It is important that a worker can locate and interpret regulations that deal with situations that commonly arise in the trades. Familiarity with the contents of the OHS Regulation is essential for all tradespersons. Using the online search tool is a good resource for identifying or confirming regulations that govern specific situations you may encounter on your job site.

The OHS Regulation mobile app allows you to search and browse the Workers Compensation Act and the OHS Regulation, Policies, Guidelines, and WCB Standards on your mobile device. The app is available for iOS and Android.
