Compliance System Dept: "I believe these points are the start of ensuring OHS in Alberta is effective and efficient while emphasizing the priorities of what we're here to do -to make sure our workers, your sisters and brothers, moms and dads, daughters and sons, go home healthy and safe at the end of every shift," Lukaszuk says, according to Calgary Herald. "Work-related diseases and vehicle incidents are killing more workers than injuries are," Lukaszuk says. "It is time we took steps to reduce these workrelated fatalities." Last July, Employment and Immigration Minister Thomas Lukaszuk launched a 10-point plan for Occupational Health and Safety. Since then, several new initiatives have been completed, and several more added. With a number of the items on the original plan completed -including a stronger compliance system, a template for employer records, posting these records and a review of the Work Safe Alberta initiative -the Alberta government introduced four new initiatives in November.
