Approximately 5 of every 100 workers experienced a job-related injury or illness and 540 workers lost their lives on the job; 21 deaths were due to electrocution. Working Together For A Safer Workplace Since 1922, the industry has relied on Woodhead product solutions from Molex to develop and manufacture the highest quality electrical safety products for demanding environments. Canadian Electrical Code The CEC was created and is amended every 3 years by the Committee on the Canadian Electrical Code, Part 1. Similar Committees create many standards that are used for safety in all aspects of industry. This code is adopted by Provincial Authorities Having Jurisdiction then legislated into law in each province, in part or in whole. COHSR The Canadian Occupational Health and Safety Regulations come from the Canadian Labour Code and are commonly called the Statutes of Regulation or SOR. These SORs are intended to provide workers in specific areas direction on how to work safely and have the proper safety equipment to maintain a safe work environment. Although not directly measured, the COHSR has been a major contributor to the reduction on work-related injuries in Canada. Employers Employers ultimately have the legal responsibility to provide a safe workplace for their employees.
