Ontario Government Aims to Prevent 60,000 Workplace Injuries Per Year With More Inspectors, Broader Powers Occupational Hazards
The government of the Canadian province of Ontario says it plans to cut workplace injuries by 20 percent over the next 4 years, and as part of that plan the Ontario Ministry of Labour last week announced that health and safety inspectors now can issue tickets for unsafe workplace practices in the industrial sector.
The news comes on the heels of the ministry's December announcement that the government has begun training 100 new occupational health and safety inspectors as part of its plan to prevent 60,000 workplace injuries per year by 2008.------------------------------------------- posted 6:09 PM :: reference link ::
