Gowlings will be teaching the Accident Prevention, Loss Control and OHS Management Systems course at University of Toronto School of Continuing Studies this Spring
Accident prevention is essential for all organizations. Reducing and eliminating accidents not only decreases the number of injuries, property damage, legal liability and financial costs, but also enhances an organization's overall reputation and boosts employee morale. This course will address the importance of approaching accident prevention in a systematic manner. Course topics include OHS Programs, hazard identification, design of auditing tools, investigations and case studies. Instructors include a leading Canadian OHS lawyer, and OHS consultants, whose credentials and experience make this course valuable for any professional who has responsibilities for safety, regardless of position or industry.

What is JHSC?
A joint health and safety committee (JHSC) is a workplace committee made up of management and non-management members.
