Health & Safety is a priority for OABA
OABA has the resources you need to ensure the success of your compliance programs. We have the skills and programs you need to meet your obligations as defined in Federal and Provincial Health & Safety legislation as well as the many other regulations which impact your company.

Are you prepared to defend yourself against negligence charges under the Criminal Code of Canada for failure to ensure the safety of your employees and the public?

Program Development and Management Support
We can help you identify what you must do to meet your legal obligations, to establish required training programs as well as assisting you in program implementation and maintenance. We can offer environmental and safety system inspections of warehouses, offices, maintenance shops, grain elevators, silos, fire code compliance, vehicles and site security. An up-to-date snapshot of your organization to provide you with valuable information on the status of your company's compliance practices. For more information on our consulting services click here
