Consulting Services
In addition to our legal services, Charlebois Associates also provides clients with health and safety consulting. Our goal is to help you prioritize your efforts so that you spend your limited health and safety resources wisely.
The fact is, companies today must take a strategic approach to health and safety risk management. The law of “due diligence” does not require that you have it all done at once. You are required to tackle first the hazards which pose the greatest risks and are likely to cause the most serious injuries. As long as you do have a plan in place to address all of the other risks over time and with a strategic allocation of resources, you will have met the requirements for due diligence. Once you have a plan in place, then you can work steadily towards addressing the other, less likely and less potentially damaging workplace hazards.
Our health and safety consulting services include:
WSIB Workwell Assistance
Health and Safety Compliance Audits
Health and Safety Policy Program Development
Health and Safety Training Services, which include:
WSIB Claims Management
Drugs and Alcohol in the Workplace
Harassment and Violence Prevention in the Workplace
Internal Responsibility System (IRS) Training
To help reduce the number of lost-time injuries in the workplace, we strongly believe that Internal Responsibility System (IRS) training is critical. Not only does it promote regulatory compliance requirements, but if done right, it can also help to create a business advantage.
