Joint Health and Safety Committee

The Trent University Multi-Workplace Joint Health and Safety Committee is an advisory group of worker and management representatives who meet regularly to identify hazards and make recommendations for the improvement of health and safety. Worker-appointed Committee members perform monthly inspections of the physical condition of the University, ensuring that every building is inspected at least once each year. The Committee responds to concerns raised by workers and plays an important role in the investigation and resolution of these concerns.

The Committee Terms of Reference can be viewed on the Health and Safety Portal.
