  7. IRP Testimonials – Manak Dhillon, Manager, GEF “Often H & S is not on every ones forefront as we all are focused on finishing our daily tasks. Having the educators from CCSA work one-on-one with our staff gave a fresh perspective towards workplace safety, as the educators picked up on areas that normally staff would not think in terms of safety. The educators made working safe fun by having various contests and games; they offered practical tips and advice on making some of the more difficult and routine tasks easier and safer.” “The greatest benefit was the various training programs offered to staff on workplace safety. On a recent employee survey, employees scored our organization’s commitment towards Health and Safety at 88%!”
