The Safe Workplace Program aims to advance the safety culture in the North by providing incentives for businesses and organizations to strengthen their health and safety programs and by sharing good approaches for injury and accident prevention. This summary outlines the basics of the program. 

The purpose of this discussion paper is to: Provide a brief overview of workplace safety programs and safety culture; introduce WSCC’s Safe Workplace Program; and, ask for feedback on what motivates employers to improve their safety programs and advance their workplace safety culture. Feedback gathered from employers will help to inform the future development of the Safe Workplace Program.
