The Hearing Video

WorkSafeBC is an independent agency governed by a Board of Directors appointed by government, and is dedicated to promoting workplace health and safety for the workers and employers in the Canadian province of British Columbia. The organisation consults with, and educates, employers and workers and monitors compliance with the Occupational Health and Safety Regulation.

HSE has a reciprocal agreement with WorkSafeBC which allows us to share expertise and resources and helps to reduce costs on both sides of the Atlantic.

The original film can be seen at WorkSafeBC Videos - The Hearing Video[46]. Alternatively you can visit WorkSafeBc's website[47].
