Falls are a leading cause of worker injuries and deaths in construction. Employers must ensure workers who may use fall protection equipment complete working at heights training. WHSC can help. ow.ly/g24E50Z5hKQ
As summer hiring starts, by law employers must train, supervise, and protect new workers, educating them about workplace hazards, safety rights, and safe work practices before work and hazardous tasks begin. Our training can help. ow.ly/SMNo50Z4s9e
Many small businesses fail to adequately protect workers from workplace hazards. And yet, they have same duty as large employers to protect workers. IWH's study addressed research gaps in new/small business occupational health and safety. Learn more - ow.ly/Fluy50YZ7tA
Supervisor failures in planning, supervision and hazard control, led to a valve rupture, flooding an underground chamber and killing a worker. The tragic incident highlights dangers of confined spaces and need for quality worker and supervisor training. ow.ly/bXHB50YVKZH
Improving worker health and safety means stronger supply chain transparency, proactive hazard identification, and worker-centered investigations. Companies must ensure safe working conditions, respond quickly to reported hazards, and provide remedies. ow.ly/Vh1150YrYzK
Broader global pressures such as conflict, climate change, and restrictive migration policies further increase the danger by pushing vulnerable workers into dangerous, unregulated environments.
Report by the @BHRCmedia links 584 companies to 747 alleged cases of migrant worker abuse, highlighting serious gaps in worker health and safety. Many workers experienced multiple abuses simultaneously, pointing to systemic risk rather than isolated incidents.
WHSC student scholarship contest now open for 2026! Share a workplace hazard experience (real or potential), its health impact, employer's response, and what should have been done to prevent it. Eight scholarships of up to $6k for winners. Apply here - ow.ly/a3uH50YVGvO
The horrifying story of one worker shows preventing workplace violence needs more than policies. It demands comprehensive training, better staffing, security controls, stronger recognition of work hazards and enforceable laws. Our training can help - ow.ly/XTWQ50YVGaz
Disconnect in compensation and prevention of work mental stress needs resolution, says WHSC Executive Director Andrew Mudge. Workers deserve more than compensation. Hazards should not be allowed to persist. Root causes need to be tackled. ow.ly/H4hK50YOCn1
Violence/harassment, underreporting, weak responses & administrative reprisals are a few factors making schools hazardous. Stronger, enforceable and enforced laws, training and worker engagement can combat it. WHSC training can help too - more at ow.ly/fMOK50YNF3z
Andrew Mudge, WHSC's ED, shines a light on Ontario's rise in work-related mental stress and WSIB accepted claims -- more than 2x in last decade. Why are the they rising? And why are we not preventing harm in the first place? ow.ly/H4hK50YOCn1
The pursuit of healthier work continues long past Day of Mourning. This year WHSC joined worker advocates throughout Ontario and the world, in the call for mentally safe work. To learn more, check out this effective @ilo video and online resources. ow.ly/OAs350YQKz6
@Guelph_Labour @CanadianLabour Grace Goderre of CUPE Local 3913 carried a flag as part of the #DayOfMourning gathering.
@Guelph_Labour Janice Folk-Dawson, Vice-President of @Guelph_Labour, Kim Kent, @CanadianLabour Representative, and Nicole Clark, President of the Guelph & District Labour Council, helped mark the solemn occasion. #DayOfMourning
At @Guelph_Labour's #DayOfMourning event at Guelph City Hall, workers, unions, families, and community members gathered to remember those killed, injured, or made ill because of their work—and to continue the fight for safer workplaces.
@CanadianLabour @OFLabour's Ahmad Gaied reminds us that worker deaths are not accidents. They can be crime scenes. Thanks to worker advocacy, Toronto City Council passed a motion for mandatory police training on workplace death investigations under the Westray Law. #DayOfMourning
@CanadianLabour Yvonne Laurent from WHSC stresses the importance of psychological safety at #DayOfMourning in Cobourg. WSIB stress claims have more than doubled in the past decade. It’s time for more than compensation but assessment and control of workplace psychosocial hazards. #DayOfMourning
Across #DayOfMourning gatherings in Windsor, Oakville, St. Catharines and North Bay, speakers reminded us that every worker deserves to come home safe, every hazard must be taken seriously, and every loss must move us closer to prevention.
