A new requirement is established for all workplaces to report Hazardous Occurrence Investigation Reports (HOIR-LAB 1070) to the NHQ Occupational Health and Safety Program. Paragraph 31b in the Guidelines will be revised accordingly.

Effective April 1, 2014, the manager of the workplace is required to forward a copy of the completed HOIR-LAB 1070 to the NHQ Occupational Health and Safety Program by e-mail to Gen-OHS/SST@csc-scc.gc.ca.
