A moment to remember all those who have passed either while at work or from work related injuries and illnesses.

Summer will be different this year thanks to Covid 19 but our diligence surrounding summer fun must remain. Don't forget to use sunscreen, ensure you take a first aid kit with you in the car. If you're traveling to someplace out of the way, always let family or friends know where you're headed and check in occasionally. And don't skip water safety guidelines including the use of life jackets on the water and always keeping the kids in sight near pools and beaches. Add to that maintaining social distancing and ensuring you wear a mask in closer social situations. Have a safe summer! Have fun!

As is the custom in BC chains and winter tires are required on high risk roads beginning Oct 1st. However, the fines for non-compliance are about to take a jump.

Commercial truck drivers who don't carry tire chains or install them when needed will face higher fines this winter.

The history of Health and Safety in North America is literally written in blood. At one time courts deemed that it was a worker's fault for getting injured on the job because workers were aware of the hazards and by accepting the job, also accepted the liability. This is a great read.

During World War I, hundreds of young women went to work in clock factories, painting watch dials with luminous radium paint. But after the girls — who literally glowed in the dark after their shifts — began to experience gruesome side effects, they began a race-against-time fight for justice th...

There's so much to learn and know prior to operating a boat. Ensure you take an approved boater safety course first and follow these tips for a safe experience.

According to federal estimates, 100 people die each year in boating accidents, and many more suffer serious injuries. The majority of these fatalities can be avoided.

"In February, a spokesperson for Health Canada said...they haven't been able to conclude that BPA in receipt paper is a significant source of exposure for the general population". I believe the larger concern is for the worker at the register who, like the gas pump attendant of years ago, is continually exposed over extended periods.


A group of health, labour, and environmental organizations is calling on Canada’s leading grocery stores to ditch paper receipts coated with hormone-disrupting chemicals that have been linked to diabetes, obesity, and certain cancers.

Shift work continues to grow in scope, but that doesn't make it any easier or safer. Just like any other workplace hazard, mitigations must be in place to protect workers.

Shift work is a way of life for nearly 15 million Americans, spurring numerous studies that link the practice to health problems and chronic conditions. “It’s really important to recognize these risks, and we need to understand them and we need to treat them,” a leading researcher says.

I know it sounds simple but you would be amazed at how many workers fail to plan their work. If you are looking for an almost exclusive causal factor in a wide array of incidents, failure to plan would top the list.

I'm posting this today for two reasons, first of all it's important for workers who must endure long days working in hot and extreme heat conditions to know how to protect themselves. Secondly.....well I hope it helps kick in some actual summer weather for the folks back home on the Cape. Be safe, look out for each other.
