We help employers in Nova Scotia navigate the health and safety legislative landscape to ensure workplaces and workers are as healthy and safe as possible.<\/p>\n<p>Small business owners have a responsibility to ensure the health and safety of their workers in the workplace under the Occupational Health and Safety Act, as enforced by the Department of Labour, Skills and Immigration. As an employer, understanding your rights and responsibilities and the rights of your workers is imperative to ensure you&#8217;re operating in compliance with health and safety regulations. Small businesses don&#8217;t always have the time or resources to devote to fully understand every aspect of these regulations. That&#8217;s where Health &amp; Safety Help comes in.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: center;\">Health and Safety Advice You Can Count On<\/h3>\n<p>Health and Safety Help is backed by more than 25 years of employer expertise from <a href=\"https:\/\/www.peninsulagrouplimited.com\/ca\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Peninsula<\/a>, a trusted source in employee relations, workplace health and safety, human resources, and employer advice since 1983.

This is still our mission today.<\/p>\n<p>Health and Safety Help is Peninsula&#8217;s employer advice line providing expert health and safety guidance on navigating regulations and legislation impacting small business owners in Nova Scotia. In addition to Health and Safety Help, Peninsula also operates <a href=\"https:\/\/www.employerline.ca\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Employer Line<\/a> to advise small business owners on employer relations and human resources in Nova Scotia.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>Health and Safety Help<\/strong><strong> for Small Business Employers<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Small business owners know how valuable good employees are. This is part of the reason why workplace health and safety has become an increasingly important aspect of workplace culture over the years. Workplace health and safety is important from a legal standpoint as well. As an employer, it&#8217;s your responsibility to ensure safe and healthy workplace conditions for your workers.<\/p>\n<p>At Health and Safety Help, the health and safety of your business is our business. We work with you to ensure your business meets all the necessary requirements to safeguard your workers from health and safety hazards as much as possible.
