This workshop is designed to help supervisors integrate due diligence and compliance into their daily routines through practical, realistic strategies. Participants will gain a clear understanding of their legal obligations, explore ways to effectively manage worker (un)safe work practices and behaviours, and discover how Employers can better support their Supervisors to “show the work” that is being done to keep Workers safe. By focusing on integrating health and safety responsibilities rather than adding them on top of others, this session empowers supervisors to lead confidently and contribute to a safe and productive workplace.
