What are Joint Health and Safety Committees, and where are they required? A Joint Health and Safety Committees (JHSC) is a committee of at least two persons, who represent the workers and the employer at a workplace. Their primary role is to identify workplace health and safety problems and bring them to the attention of the employer. Most workplaces with 20 or more workers are required to have at least one worker and one management person serve as certified members of a workplace Joint Health and Safety Committee (JHSC). Workplaces with more than five but less than 20 workers are not usually required to have a JHSC. Instead, workers must select a person from among themselves to be a health and safety representative. The training is 5 days in total. It consist of two parts, part one (3 days) and part two (2 days). https://www.cdrcp.com/
