Advice from stakeholders is vital to the success of Safe At Work Ontario in dealing with sector hazards and improving the health and safety culture of our workplaces.

In January 2010, the ministry held five Safe At Work Ontario strategy meetings. Sixty-seven individuals attended, representing 49 stakeholder groups (employers, labour, industrial and construction specialists, and others).

In 2011, stakeholder consultations take place during January and February.

The objectives of the sessions are to:

• Build awareness of Safe At Work Ontario
• Deliver key messages regarding Safe At Work Ontario
• Obtain feedback from stakeholders on:
  • how the program is working
  • areas for possible change and improvement, and
  • support for proposed new directions
• Foster a strong health and safety culture
• Provide an overview of the key highlights of the report of the Expert Advisory Panel on Occupational Health and Safety.
