Dear OHS Professional:

The most powerful legal protection your OHS program can have is to be able to prove due diligence.

But how do you prove due diligence?  What does the law require?  How have due diligence thresholds changed in light of recent court rulings and OHS prosecutions?  What are today’s best techniques for integrating proven due diligence practices into your OHS program? 

Join Canada’s leading OHS professionals at OHS Compliance Summit 2010, and you’ll get the practical, “how-to” help you need to immediately improve your OHS due diligence practices and strengthen your OHS program. 

In a day and half of intensive learning, demonstrations, and expert guidance, you’ll find out how to prove due diligence to protect your organization – and your key officers, directors and supervisors -- against fines, penalties an even criminal prosecution if a major safety incident occurs in your workplace. Plus, you’ll get cutting-edge updates and analysis of the latest trends and developments in OHS compliance … and you’ll have the opportunity to network with Canada’s leading safety professionals, OHS lawyers, government regulators, and other OHS experts.

Practical “Nuts and Bolts” Compliance Solutions

OHS Compliance Summit 2010 is Canada’s leading compliance conference for one reason: you don’t just find out what the law says about due diligence.  You find out what-to-do and how-to-do-it to integrate proven due diligence practices into your safety program and polices.

In a day and a half of intensive learning, you will:

 

  • Participate in an interactive “anatomy of an OHS prosecution” to find out step-by-step what happens when the government decides to prosecute for OHS violations ... what factors the prosecutors  evaluate … what you should do now to make sure your organization is  protected
  • Ask questions and get practical, “real world” answers to your compliance and due diligence questions from lawyers and other safety professionals who have been actively involved in OHS investigations,  prosecutions, and creating management systems
