Small business safety

As a business owner or manager, you must manage all aspects of your business. This includes looking after the safety and health of each person in your workplace. Managing workplace safety and health is just as important as managing finances when it comes to your bottom line.

The information on this section will help you:

• put a safety and health system in place
• ensure the safety and health of people in your workplace
• learn your basic duties and responsibilities under the Manitoba Workplace Safety and Health Act and Regulation

This resource is designed for workplaces with fewer than twenty employees. While it will provide you with important information, it is not comprehensive of all your rights and responsibilities. As a business owner you must determine which Manitoba Workplace Safety and Health Act regulations apply to your workplace.
