Print this Article | Send to Colleague
Dear Stakeholders,
CSA Group is currently recruiting members to participate on the technical committee on Work Disability Prevention Management Systems ( WDP-MS). The proposed standard will include a framework for the prevention and management of work disability at an organization level, and for hiring and retaining workers with disabilities.
The WDP-MS Standard will be designed to complement other related management systems frameworks such as CSA Z1000 Occupational Health and Safety Management System, CSA Z1003 Psychological Health and Safety, and CSA Z1004 Workplace Ergonomics. In addition, the Standard will have the potential to be incorporated into other aspects of an organization’s management structure, resulting in better recognition of work disability prevent management policies and practices by different stakeholders within organizations.
What is expected?
Work disability prevention management knowledge and experience;
Ability to work in a multi-stakeholder environment, following the principles of consensus;
Commitment to participate in committee work over a period of approximately 24 months, both remotely and in-person; and
Commitment to collaboration and network with other stakeholders about the Standard.
The deadline to apply is August 31, 2018.
Should you have any questions, please contact Lina Lopez at Lina.Lopez@CsaGroup.org.
