Health and safety coordinators have a demanding role, often on the front line and sometimes working alone. Coming together is not a luxury: it is essential to advancing the profession.
An often isolated profession
Many CoSS professionals work alone on their site, without peers to turn to. This isolation makes sharing good practices and developing skills more difficult. To better understand the role, see what a CoSS is in Quebec.
Building recognition
The role’s value is sometimes poorly understood. A collective voice helps communicate the CoSS contribution to worksite prevention.
Representing shared interests
Working conditions, training and regulatory developments: an association gives these issues a stronger voice with employers, partners and institutions. This is also the purpose of an active community of practice.
