How is a Workwell evaluation conducted?
Employers are notified in writing of an impending workplace health and safety evaluation under section 82 of the Workplace Safety and Insurance Act. A Workwell evaluator contacts the firm to schedule an appointment for the evaluation. The evaluator examines the occupational health and safety program at the workplace, observes the firms practices and procedures in action, tours the workplace, and conducts random interviews with the workers on-site. Following the evaluation a report is prepared and mailed to each participant involved with the evaluation process. In addition, copies of the report are sent to the Ministry of Labour and to the appropriate Health and Safety Association. The report indicates the firms overall score, identifies health and safety program components in place, and identifies areas requiring improvement. The passing score is 75%. If the organization is not successful, they are given six months to improve their health and safety program and system before a re-evalu
