OHSA: "In workplaces, including construction projects, at which the number of workers regularly exceeds five and at which no joint health and safety committee is required (5-20 employees) employers or constructors must ensure that workers select a health and safety representative [subsection 8(1)]. Like joint health and safety committee members, the representative should be committed to improving health and safety conditions in the workplace." ~ Ministry of Labour
