Description of last year's 2011 edition:

The Occupational Health and Safety Act: Quick Reference, 2011 Edition helps you make sense of the OH&S Act and Regulations – quickly and easily. Be prepared, make decisions with confidence and ensure your business complies with the sections of the OH&S Act and Regulations that are of importance to the success of your organization.

Comprised of two sections, part one of the Occupational Health and Safety Act: Quick Reference features more than 20 key compliance issues that are identified, defined, cross-referenced and accompanied by a legal compliance checklist. Part two contains the full text of the OH&S Act and key Regulations.

The perfect resource for all health and safety issues, the Occupational Health and Safety Act: Quick Reference addresses every major component of the Act and Regulations, "in plain English." It's like having an OH&S expert on hand guiding you every step of the way. Each chapter contains:

Simple, clearly worded definitions
An OH&S expert's complete overview in "layman's terms"
A comprehensive table alphabetically listing all the requirements and the exact page numbers where you can find the full text version
Step-by-step compliance checklists to ensure you've covered all the bases
Plus, International Labour Organization (ILO) guidelines to help you go beyond local requirements and meet international standards.

Bill 168, amending the Act with respect to workplace violence and harassment.
Amendments to the regulations with respect to designated substances, control of exposure to biological and chemical elements, construction projects and needle safety.
Updated list of OH&S Resources and Index.

The legislation cited in this edition is current to Ontario Gazette vol. 143:42 (October 16, 2010).
