What is Health and Safety in the Workplace?<\/h2>\n

Workplace accidents are more common than you might think. In 2018, the Association of Worker\u2019s Compensation Boards of Canada recorded 265,000 accepted claims for work-related injury or disease and 1,027 workplace fatalities, up by 5.5% and 7.4% from the previous year, respectively. While these alone are quite significant numbers, keep in mind that they exclude unreported or rejected cases, meaning the total number of incidents is likely much higher.<\/p>\n
