LA6(1) Health & Safety at Work
The B.C. Employment Standards Act, B.C. Labour Code and the negotiated collective agreements (IBEW & COPE) cover health and safety at work. Related to this is the existence of joint management/union safety committees, as required by Workers' Compensation Board law, policy and regulation to monitor adherence to health and safety regulations. BCÂ Hydro complies with these regulations and, in some instances, exceeds them. One hundred per cent of the workforce is covered by these regulations and a hierarchical structure of committees monitors and reports results, and takes corrective actions.
