OHS PROGRAM DEVELOPMENT / FAQ
Practical answers.
A clearer starting point.
For employers across the Lower Mainland and Fraser Valley, including Vancouver.
What can an OHS program include?
Within the agreed scope, your program can include safety policies, leadership and worker responsibilities, hazard assessment processes, safe work procedures, inspection forms, orientation records, and incident reporting tools. The right combination depends on your operations and the hazards your people face.
Can you improve our existing safety program?
Yes. We review the documentation and processes you already use, identify gaps or outdated material, and agree on practical improvements. The aim is to retain what works and make the program clearer and more useful as your operations change.
Do you help put the program into practice?
Implementation support can include guidance on using the program and its forms, clarifying responsibilities, and establishing a review process. Rollout support and follow-up are agreed as part of your engagement so the documentation connects with day-to-day work.
How does program development support COR readiness?
A functioning program and evidence of implementation help establish the foundation for COR readiness. Program development does not guarantee certification. Audit independence, auditor eligibility, and any prior program-development work must be reviewed with the applicable certifying partner before a formal audit engagement.
