Occupational health and safety issues are very important to HSA members. OH&S stewards have a vital role in promoting a safe work environment and helping to prevent injuries. These workshops will be participatory and discussion oriented. We urge you to bring examples from your workplace for discussion.

Priority will be given to new HSA OH&S stewards and to OH&S stewards who have not previously attended HSA OH&S workshops. Workshop participants will discuss:
- rights and responsibilities of safety stewards
- role of the WCB
- role of the new occupational health and safety regulations
- accident investigation / prevention
- workload/stress
- violence in the workplace
- musculoskeletal injuries
