ACTSAFE’S UNIQUENESS In the late 1990’s, members of British Columbia’s motion picture, television and performing arts industries were brought together with a mandate to review occupational health and safety regulations and to provide guidance as to the applicability of regulations upon these industries. The success of this collaboration between representatives from employer, worker and regulatory organizations was the catalyst for the formation of Actsafe in 1998 and it remains at the core of our governance model to this day. 2018 sees Actsafe Safety Association celebrate twenty years of service. We are a not-for-profit association funded by employer contributions and revenue from fee-based programs and services. This funding model ensures that all stakeholders, big and small, union and non-union, Canadian and international have a stake in Actsafe and have access to our services. Over the years we have developed a wide range of resources including digital and print media, instructor-led and online education, personalized OHS advisory services and safety equipment rentals. Our efforts keep the industries continually focused on improving health and safety outcomes and preventing illness and injuries; helping reduce regulatory compliance costs and creating safer workplaces. As a testament to the quality and uniqueness of our resources, they are used around the world by others interested in educating and promoting safety in these unique industries.
