In addition, Langley has one of the most active industrial and service commercial land bases found in the lower mainland. OH&S Safety Consulting (OH&S) took a look at Langley and found a textbook opportunity to open a new training centre on the Langley Campus of the Roofing Contractors Association of British Columbia. The recruiting staff at OH&S have been hard at work building a top-notch team in Langley to focus on supporting our customers’ success through safety consulting, a retail store full of occu- pational health and safety products, dedicated classrooms for delivery of OH&S SAFETY CONSULTING JOINS RCABC OFFICES By MARK HEMSWORTH our growing library of safety training programs and an outdoor practical skills training and testing compound for continuing education disciplines such as confined space, fall protection, forklift operator, elevated work platforms, scaf- folding use and erector competencies and more. And it’s all available now in a training centre we feel is second to none. OH&S CEO Jason Martin says, “Our headquarters and flagship location will remain in Kamloops, B.C. where we will continue to celebrate our passion for safety; however, the opening of our second facility within the RCABC building in Langley will provide advan- tages and benefits to both our organiza- tions’ memberships. OH&S and RCABC have complementary strengths, common values, passionate leadership and a belief in supporting the highest quality safety practices and business ethics. It has been a fantastic journey for OH&S and it is with great excitement that we opened the doors to OH&S Safety Consulting and Training Solutions at 9734 201 Street in Langley on March 1, 2018. We hope you stop by and say hello and we can’t wait to show you around our new facility. A grand opening and community event will be planned to celebrate this new location later this year, so to keep up to date on the new store develop- ment, we invite you to sign up for our Safety Matters newsletter.” “Part of the RCABC Strategic Plan included increasing the use of our world class training centre and building. Executing a lease for space in the building with a tenant like OH&S is a good fit for us and our membership,” said Bryan Wallner, RCABC CEO. “RCABC will continue to provide all of the training options you have come to expect from us, and look forward to working with OH&S to explore offering even more options outside of the lower mainland,” he added. Keeping employees safe at work and reducing the number and severity of incidents is at the core of what OH&S Safety Consulting and Training Solutions is all about. It is a privilege for OH&S to make available our consulting services, our line of safety products, and our safety training programs to the Roofing Contractors Association of British Columbia and to the workers, members of joint health and safety committees, supervisors, and managers serving industries throughout the prov- ince of British Columbia.
