“Working with our Workplace Safety Specialist has been a very positive experience
for our Health Region. SASWH provides the knowledge, support, tools and
resources that we require to move forward with current initiatives and projects.
Our Workplace Safety Specialist has been visible in outlying communities in our

SASWH.”

“This year, our organization has embarked upon a complete restructuring
of our OHC. Our dedicated committee members have recognized a need
and desire to learn more about their role as committee members and
proactively address workplace hazards. Our Workplace Safety Specialist
and SASWH have been invaluable to this process. Their knowledge and
kindness have made this process as comfortable for the committee as possible
and we are very excited to put this guidance into practice.”

“Mont St. Joseph (MSJ) Home has been blessed with great support from
SASWH as we journey to improve safety in our workplace. Our
Workplace Safety Specialist has not only provided advise, direction and
support to our Leadership teams and O.H.S. Committee, she has also been
involved in day-to-day initiatives with our staff for team and individual
training & in-services. She has also shared invaluable information and
‘best practise’ initiatives that have greatly assisted our efforts to improve
our safety culture; often co-ordinating resources from SASWH to
contribute to our efforts. Another Workplace Safety Specialist provided a
two day seminar for our newly established Core Committee. Our staff
were appreciative of his expertise and teaching skills. MSJ Home has a
renewed confidence and faith that we will improve safety in the
workplace. We are indebted to SASWH and their passion for safety, their
skills and time.”
