New fire safety regulations

BEFORE
AFTER
The legislation provides for the upgrading of these types of buildings in order to provide minimum standards for Life Safety such as improving/installing fire separations, providing additional exit facilities, upgrading the fire detection provisions and depending on conditions/alternative methods of compliance, the installation of a sprinkler system.

The legislation says these types of buildings must be upgraded to minimum safety standards. Meeting the standards may involve:

  • improving or installing fire separations,
  • putting in more exits,
  • upgrading fire alarm systems, and
  • installing sprinkler systems.

Reporting an injury

BEFORE
AFTER
Whenever medical attention is required for a work related injury, the employee will report to the person holding a Survival First Aid certificate when practicable and if applicable. If necessary, the employee will then report to the NEAREST medical facility to ensure prompt attention to, and the least possible aggravation to his/her injury. Following this, if fit to do so, the employee will report back to his supervisor, advising of his status and the name of the attending physician.

Get medical help from an employee who holds a Survival First Aid Certificate. If you need more care, go to the nearest medical centre.

If you are able to return to work, report the injury to your supervisor, giving the name of the doctor who treated you.
