About the project
The Manufacturing Safety Alliance of BC is working with industry, mental health, academic, government, and labour experts to develop a mental health strategy for the manufacturing sector.
This strategy and plan will define a way forward to enable employers to integrate psychological health and safety into their OHS management systems.
Manufacturing Sector Mental Health Strategy
Workplace mental health has emerged as a top priority for British Columbia manufacturers. Manufacturing leaders across the province recognize that post-COVID economic recovery depends on a mentally healthy workforce able to cope with relentless change. Leaders clearly recognize that today, employers’ duty of care includes both physical and mental health. In response, the Alliance is launching the Manufacturing Sector Mental Health Strategy.
