AMHSA and OHS are jointly hosting a free informational webinar on the recently expanded Proactive Inspection Program.
Effective April 1, 2025, Occupational Health and Safety (OHS) expanded the Proactive Inspection Program to include counties/municipal districts, towns, and villages; the program previously only included cities.
Each year, OHS proactively inspects employers to monitor compliance with legislation. The Proactive Inspection Program helps work site parties identify health and safety hazards and mitigation measures. OHS chooses employers and sectors with:
- Relatively high injury and illness rates
- High frequency of incidents
- Emerging trends
The Alberta Municipal Health and Safety Association (AMHSA) has partnered with OHS to host a free informational webinar to share important updates to the Proactive Inspection Program. The webinar will feature an OHS officer who will provide an overview of the program expansion followed by a live, 15-minute Q&A.
The webinar is scheduled for Friday, May 9, 2025, from 12:00-12:45 pm.
Use this link to register as well as submit questions in advance. If you cannot attend live, a recording will be sent to all registrants.
AMHSA has created an informational document providing details regarding the expansion of the program. The Government of Alberta has also developed resources for what workers and employers can expect before, during, and after an OHS inspection.
