On July 1, 2010,  CSABC (Construction Safety Association of BC) and CSN (Construction Safety Network) merged to form the new B.C. Construction Safety Alliance (BCCSA). Since inception each respective provincial safety organization have worked to reduce the workplace injury rate, were supported by industry and WorkSafeBC as they created and implemented health and safety programs.  While each organization has had specific programs there have been overlaps. The consolidation of staff and programs will be of significant benefit to the entire industry through administrative efficiencies and the streamlining of program delivery.

In September, BCCSA will open the new office in New Westminster. This will be the “one stop shopping” place for large and small construction sector companies who want to become COR certified, need traffic control advice, require return-to-work information or wish to access the many video and print resources that will be available to employers. The same construction safety specialists you have always worked with will be available to give you advice and assistance.
