Jurisdiction (Part 1 of the ESDC series)

It is vital for small businesses to understand which jurisdiction governs them and what legislation they must follow. This episode of the IHSA Safety Podcast (the first in a three-part series) discusses jurisdiction and features Liz Tavares, Occupational Health and Safety Officer, Employment and Social Development Canada (ESDC) – Labour Program / Government of Canada, and Michelle Roberts, Vice-President, Stakeholder and Public Relations at IHSA.


Liz and Michelle discuss federal occupational health and safety—specifically for the transportation industry—and the differences between Canada Labour Code Part II and the Ontario Occupational Health and Safety Act. Transportation services fall under federal jurisdiction, including trucks and buses that cross provincial borders or international borders on a regular and continued basis.


Liz also highlights the importance of understanding the circumstances and requirements of each jurisdiction, as well as the steps an owner of a transportation company can take to determine which legislation applies to them.


IHSA has resources available at IHSA.ca that can assist an owner of a transportation company comply with legislation under their applicable jurisdiction. Employers can also connect with ESDC at labour.gc.ca or 1-800-641-4049 for more information.
