Workplace Health & Safety
In line with our vision of health and well being for all, Interior Health is committed to creating a physically and psychologically safe workplace for each of our employees and medical staff. By ensuring employees are safe and healthy, we can provide the best care to the communities we serve.
We strive to provide a workplace that is innovative, engaging and understanding; one that promotes physical safety as well as supports employee mental health. Empowering our employees to work safely and find the supports and resources they require leads to a healthy, productive and motivated workforce.
For additional information on our health and safety program, please contact the Workplace Health & Safety Department.
Interior Health staff should continue to access these e-learning modules through the i-Learn system for the purpose of tracking completions electronically.
