Call for Faculty Member: Humber’s Lakeshore Joint Occupational Health and Safety Committee

We currently have a vacancy for a faculty member, ideally from FSCS, on the Lakeshore Joint Occupational Health and Safety Committee (JOHSC). 

The Joint Occupational Health and Safety Committee is an advisory body that is made up of worker (Faculty and Support Staff) and management (Administration) members who work together to address and promote health and safety in the workplace.

Why should you become a JOHSC member?

  • Active Involvement: Contribute to the enhancement of safety across our campus community.
  • Networking and Engagement: Attend regular JOHSC meetings to foster collaboration.
  • Hands-On Experience: Participate in inspections of campus buildings and workplaces throughout the year.
  • Knowledge Enhancement: Engage in training opportunities and participate in walkthroughs of newly renovated areas.
  • Time Commitment: Worker members on the committee are allotted an average of two hours per week to conduct committee activities. There are five JOHSC meetings a year, and members will complete approximately three workplace inspections a year.  

If you are interested in becoming a member, please contact the faculty union at info@opseu562.org.
