What is a Joint Health and Safety Committee?

A Joint Health and Safety Committee (JHSC) is composed of worker and employer representatives.

As a business headquartered in Canada, our largest facilities are located on the unceded territories of the Musqueam, Squamish and Tsleil-Waututh, as well as here on the lands of the Mississaugas of the Credit, Anishnabeg, Chippewa, Haudenosaunee and Wendat, and now home to many diverse First Nations, Inuit and Métis peoples.

Our commitment to reconciliation and decolonization is guided by the Truth and Reconciliation Commission of Canada: Calls to Action #92 .
