Frequently Asked Questions about JHSC Part 2 Virtual

A joint health and safety committee (JHSC) is a forum for bringing health and safety issues forward so that they can be resolved. The committee consists of labour and management representatives who meet on a regular basis to deal with health and safety issues. The advantage of a joint committee is that the in-depth practical knowledge of specific tasks (labour) is brought together with the larger overview of company policies, and procedures (management). Another significant benefit is the enhancement of cooperation among all parts of the work force toward solving health and safety problems. In smaller companies with fewer than a specified number of employees, a health and safety representative is generally required.

The IRS is a system, within an organization, where everyone has direct responsibility for health and safety as an essential part of his or her job. It does not matter who or where the person is in the organization, they achieve health and safety in a way that suits the kind of work they do.

The function of the committee is to support the IRS and ensure that it is functioning effectively. To do this, the JHSC has several duties which it is able to perform thanks to the rights afforded to it by the Occupational Health and Safety Act (OHSA). The following duties and rights ensure that the JHSC functions successfully. • Identifying workplace hazards. A worker member of the JHSC inspects the workplace monthly to identify workplace hazards that could endanger the health or safety of workers. • Making recommendations to the employer. The JHSC recommends ways to improve workplace health and safety such as additional protective devices and Personal Protective Equipment PPE) or safety training programs. • Investigate work refusals. A worker member of the JHSC must be present at work refusal investigations to ensure that the health and safety of the refusing worker is the top priority. • Investigate critical injuries or fatalities. A worker member of the JHSC must be present at investigations of fatalities or critical injuries. • Consulting. The JHSC has a right to be consulted prior to any workplace testing that is related to occupational health and safety. A worker member also has the right to be present for the testing sessions. • Obtaining information. The JHSC can ask the employer for health and safety information, including information about potential or actual hazards, workplace safety practices, and workplace testing. The JHSC can also obtain information from the Workplace Safety Insurance Board (WSIB) if the workplace falls under the Workplace Safety Insurance Act.
