IHSA’s regional Labour-Management Committees

Industry volunteers spread the message of health and safety from Ottawa to Windsor to Thunder Bay.

IHSA’s 11 training facilities and dozens of consultants across Ontario allow us to offer health and safety training and resources to members no matter where they are in the province. But we don’t do it alone. The 16 regional committees of our Labour-Management Network play a vital role, both by extending health and safety outreach into their communities and keeping IHSA up to date on the issues that matter to those communities.

Made up of dedicated volunteers from the industries IHSA serves, the committees focus their efforts on local outreach campaigns and events, reminding everyone of the importance of workplace health and safety. These events range from hazard-specific workshops to large symposiums.

To further promote their message and affect positive change, the committees often collaborate with colleges, unions, and trade associations and engage with local businesses—particularly those who may employ newer and/or younger workers, as well as companies whose workers are engaged in high-hazard activities.
