Good Morning,
Here I am at the CSSE Conference I have finished the classroom portion of the course and went out last night for a large piece of Alberta beef. It was a wonderful way to deal with the stress of the class.
I now have to complete an assignment, (expected pages to be over 20) and will spend approximately 40 hours to complete in the next 4 weeks. Wish me luck.
Hi again,
We spent a full day at the CSSE Conference for a course listed as “Assessing OHSE Training Needs and Options”. There were about 15 people in the class and the material was, indeed, what I expected. We learned much about how to assess the training needs of possible individual companies.

A British Columbia work camp was shut down amid allegations of unsafe work conditions and employment standards violations.
On July 21, 2010, a group of workers publicly alleged that they had been mistreated by their employer, Khaira Enterprises Ltd., while working at the company’s silviculture camp near Golden, British Columbia, says a spokesperson for the Ministry of Labour in Victoria. “The conditions they described include a lack of proper sanitation and clean drinking water, inadequate food and shelter and unpaid wages,” the spokesperson says.
