Tell us what's happening and we'll recommend the next practical step.
Keep your safety manual aligned with the agreed scope without rebuilding it. Once a year, we review it against current official sources for the agreed jurisdiction and the workplace changes you report, update the affected documents and provide revised files for employer review, approval and implementation.
Every review is led by John Duplessis, B.Sc., CRSP, a Canadian Registered Safety Professional, certified COR auditor and Energy Safety Canada external auditor.
What’s included
Legislation and work both change. One yearly review can keep the written manual aligned with confirmed changes in the agreed scope, but it does not replace ongoing hazard assessment, worker consultation, site verification or prompt action when conditions change.
We check the manual against current official OHS sources for the agreed province and scope, including applicable Alberta OHS legislation, the B.C. Occupational Health and Safety Regulation or The Saskatchewan Employment Act. We confirm what is in force on the review date and identify relevant changes; announced or pending changes are identified separately.
We draft revisions to the policies, procedures and forms affected by confirmed legislative changes within scope. New programs, technical assessments and substantial operational changes may require a separate quote.
We ask what has changed in the work, workforce, equipment, locations and organization, then identify documents and hazard assessments needing attention. This relies on complete employer information unless site review is included.
Editable Word and PDF files, with a revision summary identifying what changed, why it changed and any employer actions or verification still required.
We walk management through the changes, outstanding decisions and rollout actions. This call does not replace worker consultation, task-specific training or competency assessment.
If we identify a significant in-force legislative change within the subscribed jurisdiction and scope during the year, we notify you. This is not continuous legal monitoring, and the employer should promptly report regulator notices and workplace changes.
Document control and implementation
The Manual Care Plan updates documents within an agreed scope. The employer remains responsible for monitoring workplace change, consulting workers, approving revisions, assigning effective dates, withdrawing obsolete versions, providing training and verifying that controls work in practice.
Do not wait for the annual review after an incident, regulator direction, equipment or process change, new hazard, organizational change, worker concern or evidence that a control is ineffective. Prompt assessment and interim controls may be required.
Effectiveness should be checked through suitable records, worker and supervisor interviews, workplace observations, inspections and corrective-action follow-up. A revised manual alone does not prove that requirements are understood or implemented.

Common questions
It starts at $750 plus GST per year for one manual we built for your company. Manuals we didn’t build are quoted after a first review.
An in-force change to an applicable act, regulation or code within the agreed province and scope that affects a policy, procedure or form. Audit protocols are not legislation; if COR or SECOR alignment is included, we separately check the identified certifying partner and current protocol version available to us.
Yes. Extra hazard assessments start at $195 each and safe work practices at $125 each. We confirm them in writing before any work begins.
The yearly price covers manuals we built. For other manuals, we review yours first and quote the plan.
The Manual Care Plan reviews and revises the written manual once a year within the agreed scope. It does not guarantee legal compliance or verify field implementation. Ongoing support can assist through the year, while the employer retains control and legal duties.
Once a year on a date agreed with you, for example before a busy season or maintenance audit. The employer should not wait for that review when legislation, hazards, equipment, staffing, incidents or work processes change.
Stay current
Keep your manual current, starting at $750 plus GST per year. Tell us which manual you have and we’ll confirm the plan fits before any work begins.

How we work together
We work with employers who want to improve. The best results come when owners, managers and supervisors take an active part in the work, rather than handing it to an outside consultant and waiting for a finished binder. We bring the expertise, the structure and the follow-up. You bring leadership, time and a commitment to act on what we find.
If you only want paperwork that sits on a shelf, we're probably not the right fit. If you want a safer workplace, a program your workers trust and an audit you can walk into with confidence, we'd like to work with you. We'll talk about this openly during your free 30-minute consultation, so we both know it's a good fit before any work begins.
As the employer, you keep your legal duties under OHS legislation. We advise, organize and support. You make the decisions and direct the work. Our work makes your supervisors, internal safety coordinator, and safety committee or representative more effective. It doesn't replace them.
Our delivery dates start at project kickoff and assume your information, feedback and approvals arrive when agreed. If they're delayed, the schedule moves with them. If a project stalls, we'll raise it with you directly and agree on a plan to get it back on track, or pause it until you're ready.
We'll tell you what you need to hear, not just what you want to hear. Audit, certification and inspection decisions belong to your certifying partner or regulator, so no consultant can guarantee the outcome. What we can promise is practical, credible work and honest advice about what it will take.
Our services are not an emergency response service. If someone is seriously hurt or in danger, call 911 first, then make any reports your provincial OHS regulator requires. Once the scene is safe, contact us and we'll help you with next steps.
