Best Practices
Our Commitment to a Safe, Professional Workplace
Safety isn’t just about meeting the bare minimum. According to Alberta’s Occupational Health and Safety Act, Regulation, and Code, due diligence means looking outward as well as inward.
If another company in your industry has a serious incident, you’re expected to ask: Could that happen here? If the answer is yes, then best practice requires you to adapt, learn, and improve your own processes.
Being duly diligent is about more than checking boxes for compliance. It means paying attention to what’s happening in your industry and making changes before small risks turn into real incidents. It’s awareness, foresight, and action, qualities that protect workers and strengthen companies.
The Cost of Non-Compliance
Ignoring safety obligations is risky. Fines for failing to comply with Alberta’s Occupational Health and Safety laws can reach up to $500,000 for a first offence. Courts in Alberta are actively exercising their power to charge, prosecute, and fine companies that fall short.
Ask yourself: are you ready for that level of scrutiny? Have you built a program that shows your commitment to due diligence? Or are you hoping problems won’t happen?
