Day of Mourning - April 28th
Every year workers, families, employers and communities
come together for ceremonies held around the province
to remember those who have lost their lives to work-
related incidents or occupational disease. This day also
represents a renewal of our commitment to creating
healthy and safe workplaces. Actsafe attended the
ceremony at Hastings Park followed by a march to the
Workers’ Memorial Sanctuary.
PEER SAFETY INSPECTION PROGRAM
In 2018, Actsafe Safety Association launched its new Peer Safety Inspection Program, which pairs up venues
and staff to perform real-time safety inspections of each other’s facilities.
With guidance from an Actsafe industry advisor, Actsafe will tour the respective venues and discuss the
safety issues uncovered in each facility. This non-binding inspection is a tool to develop stakeholder skills in
hazard identification and safety solutions.
Actsafe will help venues decipher the issues and guide them to available resources, as well as providing
them with practical solutions to everyday hazards.
