Changes to the Occupational Health and Safety Act
On July 1st, 2010, the Occupational Health and Safety Act will be amended. The Act can be found on the E-Laws website at http://www.e-laws.gov.on.ca/html/statutes/english/elaws_statutes_90o01_e.htm.
The changes are primarily directed towards workplace violence and harassment prevention and require employers to prepare policies with respect to workplace violence and harassment and review the policies.
Each employer may wish to review the new changes to ensure compliance.
