Getting Help
Who do you talk to if you believe you’ve been asked you to do something that’s unsafe?
- Start with your immediate supervisor and if they’re not available, tell someone else in a position of authority. Explain why you’re not comfortable. In most cases, you will resolve the issue at this stage.
- If you’re still not satisfied, ask your safety representative, a member of your safety committee, or a shop steward.
- If you’re still not satisfied, contact the Workers’ Safety and Compensation Commission. Call toll free in the NWT 1-800-661-0792 or in Nunavut 1-877-404-4407.
