Joint local safety committees

Joint local safety committees (LSCs) play a key role in promoting a healthy and safe working environment for all building occupants.  LSCs are comprised of worker and employer representatives working together to review safety issues, make recommendations, and to participate with health and safety initiatives at their local (unit) level.    

Information on emergency planning, including training responsibilities for BECs/FECs, is coordinated through Emergency Planning.  Please visit their website for more information.

If you have any questions about Local safety committees, please contact
