OVERVIEW
Construction is a high-hazard industry that comprises a wide range of activities involving construction, alteration, and/or repair. Construction workers engage in many activities that may expose them to serious hazards, such as falling from rooftops, unguarded machinery, being struck by heavy construction equipment, electrocutions, silica dust, and asbestos.
The information, tools, and resources provided in these Construction Industry web pages are designed to assist those in the industry – whether worker or employer – to identify, reduce, and eliminate construction-related hazards.
Join this session by expert speaker Gary Heppner, where he will discuss how to guard against whistle-blowers, How to be aware of a possible whistle-blower, and the suggested steps to take before it happens.
