Contractor Safety Agreement
Yellowhead County has an Employee Health and Safety Policy. Overall, the Policy indicates that the County is committed to a strong safety program that protects its staff, its property and the public from accidents.
However, in order for the program to succeed it requires Managers, Supervisors, Workers and contractors to all be responsible and accountable for the overall safety initiatives.
Complete and active participation by everyone, every day, in every job is necessary for the safety excellence the County expects. An injury and accident-free workplace is our goal. In order to meet this goal, Yellowhead County is committed to meeting or exceeding the Alberta Occupational Health and Safety Act, Regulation & Code.
This Agreement is not intended to be all-inclusive, but rather a guide for the contractor. It is the responsibility of the Contractor to ensure that all safety rules and good safety practices including Occupational Health & Safety Regulations and the Yellowhead County Health and Safety Policy are followed when working on County-owned, leased or otherwise controlled premises. The Contractor will provide the necessary safety equipment to perform the required service in such a manner as to eliminate the cause of personal injuries and accidents.
Contractor Forms
Before the Contractor begins performing the contracted services, they are required to complete a Contractor Prequalification Form, a Contractor Safety Agreement, and a Contractor Acknowledgement Form .
