Back to Basics and Safety

Small Business Managing Challenging Times: How to protect your business during and after the pandemic.

Small business owners are working diligently to maintain safe workplaces during this pandemic. While many have key safety protocols in place, it’s critical to ensure that your health and safety program continues to meet the legal requirements, while also actively managing the COVID-19 risks.

 

Pamela Patry, Account Manager, Workplace Safety & Prevention Services (WSPS), will provide an overview of health and safety basics for small businesses owners. You’ll learn about the Safety Road Map, hierarchy of controls, how to create a safety plan, and be introduced to a variety of free resources to support program development and COVID-19 controls.
