If the work you do does not fall under one of the types of high hazard work listed in the WSCC Connect tool, you do not have to submit a notification. However, all employers still have a responsibility to provide a healthy and safe workplace for all of their employees.
 

The person responsible for the worksite is required to submit the High Hazard Work Notification. This person or business is at times referred to as the ‘principal contractor’. However, the individual who can submit the notification could be the owner of the company, a site supervisor, the project manager in charge of the work, or the person responsible for safety on the job site. 

Once you have submitted your High Hazard Work Notification via WSCC Connect, you will receive a confirmation email, which will include a High Hazard Work Notification number. When your project start date arrives, print off this confirmation and post it on your job site’s safety board. We also recommend filing a copy in your digital or printed records. 

You can log in to WSCC Connect at any time to access a record of all ongoing and past High Hazard Work Notifications. For any current High Hazard Work Notifications, you can edit and resubmit any additional notes, details on the work being undertaken, and date changes that occur up to the close of your project. 

If the type of work changes or your project has already closed, you will need to submit a new High Hazard Work Notification.*

Once you click on the High Hazard Work Notification icon, you will be directed to a selection tool where you can choose either ‘Demolition and Renovation’ or ‘Residential and Commercial Construction’. Both categories contain asbestos as possible activities you can select as part of the scope of work.
