AESES Safety & Health Committee Update
The Committee last met on April 1st and recently held their Fall meeting on November 20th. At this recent meeting, there was a general check-in discussion regarding both UM and UW’s current practices and adherence to workplace safety and health legislation. The Committee members shared they are continuing to monitor incident reporting and prevention auditing practices as well as training provisions in their assigned areas. To be able to share concerns regarding these matters with the AESES Labour Team when they are identified. No major area-wide concerns requiring action were noted. Any workplace safety and health items you would like to bring to the committee’s attention can be emailed to labourteam@aeses.ca.

The Committee members expressed at the previous meeting that they wanted a way to stay connected between meetings, as this Committee only meets twice per year. At the most recent meeting, it was announced that a MS Teams Channel was created for the Committee for this purpose. Another request of the Committee was for more educational resources. The AESES office is happy to announce that we were able to secure a new educational resource to fulfill this request: The Plexman Comic.
The Plexman Comic
AESES collaborated with international professional workplace safety expert, Dan Plexman, to provide an educational resource for all of our members on workplace safety and health: The Plexman Comic.
The Plexman Comic provides a modernized perspective on workplace safety and health in an easily digestible format. We hope this new resource serves the Committee’s and AESES’ shared goal of having our members be more supportive and connected to safety and health in the workplace.
A limited number of printed comics were purchased to provide our AESES’ Safety & Health Committee members. An electronic version is available for all members to view here: https://heyzine.com/flip-book/8e318221c3.html
Any workplace safety and health items you would like to bring to the committee’s attention can be emailed to labourteam@aeses.ca.
