The Government of Alberta has announced on December 15, 2022, in a special edition of the OHS eNews, the upcoming changes to the Occupational Health and Safety (OHS Code). Alberta’s government will be implementing changes to parts of the OHS Code that will take effect on March 31, 2023.

This is the first time since 2009 the OHS Code has been significantly updated. Updates include harmonizing language, reducing duplication and adopting best practices in the eight updated parts. The changes will give employers and workers the tools they need to build healthy, safe workplaces.
