Work-Related Hazards That Pose a Risk of Ill Health, Including: i. How These Hazards Have Been Determined; ii. Which of These Hazards Have Caused or Contributed to Cases of Ill Health During the Reporting Period; iii. Actions Taken or Underway to Eliminate These Hazards and Minimize Risks Using the Hierarchy of Controls |
To identify and prevent safety risks, we conduct injury analysis, trends and preventative or corrective actions processes. For example, our analysis identified contact dermatitis (poison ivy) as our most likely exposure. Therefore, we focus on education and recognition of poisonous plants and contact prevention. Additionally, we partner with Travelers to conduct IH testing, ergonomic training and evaluations and more to address work-related health hazards. |
