Ask AgSafe!
I’ve heard that the records and documents I keep for my safety program can also be used for other programs. Is this the case?
Record keeping and paperwork is a big part of farming, and I addressed this very topic in a recent article for BC Holstein News. It saves time and effort to use a single document for as many regulatory agencies as possible. For example, in B.C. some WorkSafeBC documents can be used across the board as long as you ensure the content of the document matches what is required by the other agencies. Looking at the content being reported and documented is key and can help reduce the overall paperwork load.
If you have questions about documentation and record keeping, contact your AgSafe representative or visit the General Safety Documents section of our website.
