The Work Health and Safety (WHS) committee facilitates consultation between Finance, Parliamentarians, and MOP(S) Act employees. The committee works together on a broad range of work health and safety issues, including developing work health and safety policies.
Work health and safety committee members
The committee is made up of Health and Safety Representatives (HSRs) from each workgroup. Workgroups are based on party lines proportionate to the number of employee positions in each work group. The committee also includes union and management representatives.
