On Friday December 13th, the Alberta Government announced the changes that would be taking place to the requirements for Health and Safety Committee (HSC) and Representatives (HSR).
The key changes include:
Employer-based rather than site-based requirements for HSCs and HS representatives. Employers have until January 31, 2020 to comply.
Eliminating the Part 1 prerequisite HSC/HS representative training. This change is effective immediately.
