The Contractor Health and Safety Policy serves as a crucial document for organizations engaging contractors in Canadian jurisdictions, ensuring compliance with federal and provincial safety regulations while protecting workers and maintaining safe operations. This policy becomes necessary when organizations regularly employ contractors for various operations, particularly in high-risk industries or regulated sectors. It incorporates requirements from the Canada Labour Code, provincial OHS legislation, and industry-specific standards, providing a framework for contractor management, risk assessment, training requirements, and emergency procedures. The policy addresses both routine and high-risk activities, supported by detailed procedures and forms, and should be reviewed and updated regularly to reflect changes in legislation or operational requirements.
