Make sure you are following provincial and federal regulations
Every workplace should make sure they are following their local regulations for safety and security in the workplace. This will most likely include providing adequate training, maintaining the premises, having emergency plans posted, first-aid kits & training, as well as having a joint health and safety committee in place for larger businesses. Check your local government websites for more information on conforming to these important regulations, they are put in place to keep people safe.
-
Have a health and safety plan in place, including an emergency procedure
Once you’ve made sure that your workplace is conforming to regulations, you can take it a step further by having security and safety plans for emergencies. You can educate your workers about these plans and keep them in an accessible place. You will want to consider having a security plan in place for robbery, natural disasters, workplace violence, and terrorism.
