    Hi Christian,

    The Occupational Health and Safety (OHSA) is Ontario’s cornerstone legislation for workplace health and safety. Other contributing legislation includes the Workplace Safety and Insurance Act (WSIA), Part II of which deals with the prevention of occupational injury and disease, and the Human Rights Code, which often has to be considered in dealing with OHS issues.
