Aviation occupational health and safety

The Aviation Occupational Health and Safety (AOHS) Program's main objective is to ensure the health and safety of crew members on board aircraft. This is accomplished through the administration, enforcement and promotion of Part II of the Canada Labour Code and of the Aviation Occupational Health and Safety Regulations. The Headquarters Division provides guidance and assistance to Regional Civil Aviation Safety Inspectors - Occupational Health and Safety (CASI-OHS) who conduct inspections, investigations and promotional visits to ensure that air operators are committed to the health and safety of their employees.
