A Safety Group is a new approach the Workplace Safety And Insurance Board (WSIB) is taking to eliminate workplace injuries and illnesses. The program rewards firms that incorporate prevention measures into their daily business. It began as a three year trial in 2000 and due to it's success became an ongoing prevention initative in July of 2002.
The rebate amounts for 2008 are in. The PAC Safety Group had another successful year. We ranked 6th out of the 50 safety groups in Ontario. The group has again achieved an overall drop in Loss Time Accidents for the year. Anyone wishing to attend our Nov 11 meeting should contact us.
