Summer Safety!

The PSAC strives to ensure members not only enjoy their health and safety rights in the workplace but also to know when their rights are being violated.

This month the PSAC Prairies Regional Health & Safety Committee invites you to consider the health and safety of you and your family outside the workplace.

July 5, 2019 is the third National Injury Prevention Day in Canada.   Parachute, a national Canadian charity founded in 2012, promotes researched, evidence-based and expert-advised resources and tools that can help to prevent serious harm or death from preventable injuries.
