Vision Statement

We envision safer, healthier workplaces where, supported by WHSC training, hazards are identified and eliminated through meaningful worker participation and full employer responsibility.

Mission Statement

Dedicated to our vision, and using our worker-to-worker delivery model, we will provide the highest quality occupational health and safety training for workers, their representatives and employers in every workplace, regardless of sector, size, location or union status.

The Workers Health & Safety Centre (WHSC) was first established to help train workers and workplace representatives so they could act with confidence and competence on their considerable legal rights and responsibilities as provided by occupational health and safety law. Meeting and exceeding this legislation remains a focus for the WHSC. In the face of unchecked occupational hazards and much suffering, full implementation of these rights and responsibilities is an absolute necessity, socially and morally.

Our unique perspective on occupational health and safety also separates us from other training service providers. We avoid band-aid solutions and victim blaming tactics. Instead we help get to the root of the problem to control hazardous work conditions or better yet eliminate them altogether.
