A COR indicates that an employer’s health and safety management system has been evaluated by a certified auditor and meets provincial standards established by Occupational Health and Safety (OHS). The COR audit consists of ten different elements that evaluate an employer’s health and safety programs. The evaluation includes an in-depth review of the employer’s health and safety program, supporting documents verifying a thorough implementation and health and safety practices execution.
“Receiving the prestigious COR certification is a validation of our organization’s commitment to safety and the thoroughness of our health and safety programs that ensure our team members are safe,” said Mark Hannah, Senior Vice President & Chief Operating Officer – Canada. “It is a significant achievement, and we could not have done it without the leadership of General Manager, Christine Paquette, and Safety Manager, Kimberly Van Veld, both of whom were instrumental in providing invaluable feedback throughout the certification process.”
