The
Safety Groups Program is an initiative by the Workplace Safety
& Insurance Board (WSIB) to eliminate workplace injuries and
illnesses.
The
program is designed to reward firms that incorporate injury
prevention measures into their daily business.Under the Safety Groups program firms realize many benefits
that they may not normally have, including access to proven health
and safety best practices, training and resources.
Firms
volunteer to participate in the Safety Group to learn from each
other in implementing injury and illness prevention programs.The firms then benefit collectively from the program
rewards.A
well-integrated workplace health and safety program makes good
business sense.
