In the early stages of planning with our WorkSafe partners, we aimed to garner the commitment of 100 government, business and community leaders to sign the Health & Safety Leadership Charter and position the health and safety of their employees and Saskatchewan communities as a priority and even more, a core value, we would be successful. The June 10, 2010 event was attended by over 200 individuals representing 128 organizations who were Charter signatories. This is a phenomenal success!
We can't rest on the success of this event but maintain the momentum by working together to develop a Health & Safety Leadership Learning Community whereby our leaders can share best practices, successes and challenges on the path to transforming to a provincial culture where injury prevention is a core value.
