Hi all,

I am slowly coming to terms with not have the HS-Canada list coming into my Outlook Inbox, will miss that service but don't want to miss out on the opportunity created by CCOSH to continue networking with the great bunch of professionals I've come to respect since coming to this country from the UK in 2006.

My name is Richard Poole and I have been working in various safety roles for the past 19 years, transitioning to a full time h&s role in 2003/4 after finding out what health and safety was supposed to be about, through some enforcement action against my employer in 2000/1.

I currently work as a Canadian Registered Safety Professional (titled, OHS Specialist) in a dynamic consulting environment serving clients mostly in Ontario.

Keep at it here guys, we can still make this work .... I've just noticed that threads you mark are delivered to your inbox so, while you have to go online initially to see the conversation and contribute, updates are just as they always were ... almost!

Cheers,

Richard

Hi Richard, as you can see Workscape does work. You mention MOL enforcement. I'm a retired MOL inspector. If you ever need some advice about the MOL just look me up on Workscape.

So Workscape does work!

Just being funny. It's that kind of day. Cheers all.

Neither Michael or myself said that it didn't work Krista! In fact, Michael has embraced Workscape!

I had looked at Workscape some time ago, didn't see any benefit over HS-Canada and left it alone. I'm now paying a little more attention but, while Workscape notifies me by email of changes to conversations I've expressed an interest in, I still need to login to view them!

Very grateful that you guys reviewed the decision to end HS-Canada. I'll maintain a Workscape subscription and my use may increase over time but right now, HS-Canada suits me, thank you!

I didn't say it didn't work either. I think we are all in agreement that Workscape does work. :)

Thanks for sharing your thoughts and spending some time on Workscape. Please continue to use whatever venue works for you.
