First Safety Blitz of 2012: MSDs
 
The Ontario Ministry of Labour will be conducting a month long safety blitz for MSDs in February of 2012, the first of the year.

The blitz will focus on the following:

Manual material handling (especially in the industrial) construction, mining and health care sectors.

"Here's what you can expect: the inspector will perform an administrative review including looking at

  • how your workplace lives up to its roles under the Internal Responsibility System
  • your MSD injury statistics
  • joint health and safety committee (JHSC) minutes
  • written procedures and training on MSD hazards, signs, symptoms and controls."
