Worker Safety

"The Forests for Tomorrow silviculture program subscribes to the Health and Safety Accord of the British Columbia Forest Industry, which states that all fatalities and injuries are preventable.

The FFT program is committed to working with the B.C. Forest Safety Council and WorkSafe BC to reduce the number of deaths and serious injuries in the silviculture industry and that the safety of silviculture workers has over-riding priority.

In addition, the Forests for Tomorrow program supports the SAFE Companies initiative to be piloted by the BC Forest Safety Council in April 2006 and will ensure participation in the pilot and subsequent implementation."
