Webinar: JOHS committee appointment process for HEU locals

This hour-long webinar is for HEU local executive members.

HEU local executives are responsible for the selection and appointment of Joint Occupational Health and Safety Committee (JOHSC) worker representatives and, in smaller locals, worker health and safety representatives.

The JOHSC plays an important role in workplace health and safety, giving members a voice in matters relating to health and safety issues.

This workshop walks you through the process of appointing JOHSC representatives in your local.
