As the safety association for the oil and gas industry in British Columbia, Alberta and Saskatchewan, Enform helps companies stay informed of and comply with occupational health and safety (OH&S) legislation. To facilitate that work, Enform retained Bennett Jones LLP to review certain provincial statutes, regulations and codes regarding OH&S in the three western provinces, as well as reviewing legislation that is applicable to entities that are federally regulated.
Bennett Jones has provided Enform with a legal opinion regarding aspects of the roles and responsibilities of owners, prime contractors and contractors with respect to certain provincial OH&S legislation in British Columbia, Alberta and Saskatchewan and the Canada Labour Code, Part II.
This comprehensive package of information - called Crossing Borders: Is your company compliant with OH&S legislation in British Columbia, Alberta and Saskatchewan? - includes a 125-page Report, and a 13-page Executive Summary. Crossing Borders summarizes the critical differences among British Columbia, Alberta and Saskatchewan legislation in terms of applicable jurisdiction, work site, and legal role and responsibilities at the work site, as of March 31, 2010.
Crossing Borders offers considerable value to oil and gas industry companies as an important tool to work towards compliance with OH&S legislation in all three western provinces.
Enform welcomes requests for the Crossing Borders materials:
