, CHAPTER 1
Introduction


ESSENTIAL OUTCOMES
After completing the lesson on this chapter, if nothing else, students should be able to explain the
importance of occupational health and safety. They should be able to describe how OH&S
affects everyone in society and consider the perspectives of multiple stakeholder groups in
OH&S. Further, they should consider how OH&S is enacted in organizations by OH&S
professionals and human resources managers.

LEARNING OUTCOMES
After completing this chapter, students should be able to:

• explain how occupational health and safety affects us all
• define occupational health and safety, occupational injury, and occupational illness
• describe the financial and social costs associated with occupational injuries and illnesses
• discuss the development of modern models of health and safety management
• list and describe the roles of the major stakeholders in occupational health and safety
• explain the connection between human resource management and occupational health and
safety
• describe the links between human resource practices and health and safety

KEY CONCEPTS
• Occupational health and safety has evolved over time, beginning in Canada in the late 1800s
and becoming formalized through the implementation of legislation such as the Canadian
Labour (Standards) Code and the Canadian Labour (Safety) Code in the 1970s.
• The attitude towards responsibility for health and safety has shifted from the worker to a
more balanced responsibility shared by the employer and the employee.
• Health and safety is important to employers, employees, and the general public because
workplace accidents and injuries have significant economic, legal, and moral/ethical
implications.
• The major stakeholders in occupational health and safety include government, employers,
employees, and organized labour.
• Health and safety professionals and human resources professionals play key roles in the
administration and implementation of occupational health and safety programs and services.

STUDENT MOTIVATION
Students who are taking this course as part of a human resources management program will be
interested in learning through this introductory chapter about how occupational health and safety

, Chapter 1—Introduction


fits within the HRM framework, and may be motivated enough to consider making occupational
health and safety their HR specialty. Students taking the course as a stand-alone course or for
other reasons may be motivated to learn about the history and development of occupational
health and safety by contemplating their own safety concerns as workers, and by comparing their
own experiences to those of workers who have gone before them without the health and safety
benefits and safeguards they currently enjoy.

BARRIERS TO LEARNING
Students who have never worked in sectors with significant or obvious health and safety risks
(manufacturing, construction, mining/forestry, etc.) may have some difficulty relating directly
and personally to the issues introduced in this opening chapter. Even so, use of broad examples
of the types of hazards present in jobs such as retail or clerical functions can help students relate
to the material.

Other students may have some perceived bias (either positive or negative) relating to labour
unions, which are described in this opening chapter as key stakeholders in occupational health
and safety. This possibility presents an opportunity for instructors to poll or otherwise engage
their class in a discussion about their views, and to encourage learners to reflect on (and perhaps
challenge) their assumptions and attitudes.

Additionally, some students may find the topic “boring” or dry and therefore have a diminished
send of importance. It is important to have the students be fully engaged at the outset of the
course and as such it is often helpful to ask students about their hobbies, and extracurricular
activities, especially for those who may never have held a job. Have the students consider how
this material might apply to those activities, in particular for people who may be considered
professionals and get paid for performing such activities. Alternatively, it is often helpful to have
students think of someone they look up to or consider a leader and then discuss how OH&S
might apply to their roles.

Finally, some students may come to this class with the mindset that responsibility for
occupational health and safety “belongs to someone else,” such as their employer, the
government, or a health and safety agency. Through this introductory chapter, be sure to
reinforce the central concept that occupational health and safety is a shared responsibility of
multiple stakeholders, inclusive of each and every working individual.

ENGAGEMENT STRATEGIES AND LESSON PLAN
1. Engaging Students at the Outset

a. Learning Objective: At the completion of this activity, students will have identified
factors that contribute to a safe learning environment, and will have related those aspects
to the topic of creating safe work environments.

As this is likely the first meeting of the class, during the first 10 minutes use the major lesson
theme of safety to help set the tone for creating a safe and effective learning environment. Using
either a “think–pair–share” approach or an “image map” handout (a page with random clip art
images students can use as representative symbols), ask students to identify things that to them
