Overview
What this RAVS document does
General health and safety requirements set the baseline duties that apply across a workplace. A hiring client that configures this element wants to see that a contractor states employer and worker duties, controls housekeeping, trains workers, and has workers report hazards.
This document states your company's general health and safety program in the structure an ISNetworld reviewer expects: employer duties, housekeeping, worker duties, qualification and training, and hazard reporting. It is written to Saskatchewan legislation. The file arrives in editable Word format - add your company name, confirm the company-specific details, and upload.
What the reviewer verifies
What ISNetworld checks
ISNetworld does not just check that a general health and safety answer exists. A reviewer verifies the document addresses each requirement the hiring client has configured. For this element, that typically means confirming the document covers:
- The duties of the employer at a place of employment
- Housekeeping that keeps entry and exit routes clear
- The duties of workers to work and act safely
- Worker training when beginning work or moving to new hazards
- Workers permitted to perform work only when trained or supervised
- Hazard reporting by workers who find unsafe equipment

Practical guidance
How to pass the general health and safety review the first time
- State employer duties. The document states the duties of the employer, including the provision and maintenance of plant, systems of work, and a safe working environment. A reviewer expects those duties.
- Train before work. The document states a worker is trained in all matters necessary to protect health and safety when beginning work or moving to a different hazard. A reviewer expects that training.
- Have workers report hazards. The document states a worker who believes equipment is not safe immediately reports the condition to the employer. A reviewer expects that reporting.
