Immediate Safety Escalation
Escalate immediately if:
A worker is seriously injured or needs emergency response
There is a major release of a hazardous substance
There is a structural collapse or other serious event
Employers must immediately notify WorkSafeBC for certain incidents. If you think it qualifies, escalate right away. (worksafebc.com)
Working Alone After Hours
If you are working alone or in isolation, BC requires a check-in procedure:
A person must be designated to contact the worker at predetermined intervals
The results must be recorded
A check at the end of shift must be done
The interval procedure must be developed in consultation with the joint committee or worker rep, and consultation with the worker assigned to work alone is required for the interval selection (worksafebc.com)
RedBlue after-hours rule: do not start a lone assignment without a check-in plan.
