Company Health & Safety (H&S) Programs are made up of many things: hazard assessments, best practices, stand-alone policies, training plans, maintenance schedules and more.


Almost all of these aspects of H&S Programs have roots in Occupational Health and Safety (OHS) Legislation. These roots grow from very basic Canadian law foundations to Provincial OHS, down to company H&S Programs and the policies they contain. This is an infographic outlining the flow from legislation to policy.

Members of the Cache project team are grateful to live, work, and be in relationship with people from across many traditional and unceded territories, covering all parts of the land known as British Columbia, Canada. We thoughtfully offer this acknowledgement recognizing that reconciliation with Indigenous Peoples' is a commitment we all share as Canadians. We are grateful to live on this land and are committed to reconciliation, decolonization, and building relationships in our communities and workplaces. Land acknowledgements are one small step towards reconciling the relationships between settlers and Indigenous Peoples, in Canada. Colonialism is a current and ongoing process. Being mindful of our participation is another step on the path of healing.
