Employer directed to resume stage 1 investigation. The MOL reviewed the concerns noted. Concern resolved following workplace parties shared efforts.

Discussion:

The Corporation and Transit Windsor will continue to work proactively with both the provincial MOL representatives, as well as those from federal Labour Canada, and comply with all reporting requirements as detailed in the OHSA and the Canada Labour Code (hereafter referred to as the CLC). Specifically our ability to limit workplace injuries and illnesses, provide effective management when injuries or illnesses occur, and to work co-operatively with both internal and external parties to address health and safety concerns proactively.

Our positive relationship and reputation with the MOL continues to benefit the Corporation as demonstrated in the interactions noted in this report and specifically as it relates to our workplace standards for documentation and adherence to reporting requirements. The level of training and comprehension of health and safety requirements demonstrated by our management teams in these site visits was vital to our success in effectively addressing each of the individual site investigations. Our Human Resources staff continue to work co-operatively with both departmental management teams and MOL representatives to address any queries, complaints or other initiatives to demonstrate the effectiveness of the Corporate Health and Safety Program, minimize risk and unnecessary illnesses and injuries.
