Use the Risk Assessment and Worksite Precautions to determine the level of risk of exposure to COVID-19. This is a tool for you to identify what risks you need to eliminate or minimize and steps you can take to protect workers.
- Consult with workers or the Joint OHS Committee to conduct the risk assessment.
- The Assessment becomes part of your health and safety plan that you share with workers.
- Reassess and update as circumstances change or new hazards are identified.
You do not need to submit the completed assessments to WSCC.
- Keep completed risk assessments for your records,
- Review protective measures regularly with staff to make sure everyone knows and understands what the employer will do to ensure safety and the steps they must take to protect themselves from exposure to COVID-19.
To have an OHS Inspector assist with your risk assessment, please email noticetocso@wscc.nt.ca or noticetocso@nu.ca
