Safety Management System

COR-certified employers demonstrate leadership, commitment to continual improvement, and dedication to worker health and safety. Possessing a certificate of recognition demonstrates to our workers, Clients, industry peers, and the public that we value a workplace that’s safe and secure from injury, illness, and disease. This commitment translates into a safer and healthier workforce and work environment, which helps ensure our workers go home safely every day.

Environmental Management System

Implementation of our EMS demonstrates our commitment not only to regulatory compliance, but also to ongoing environmental improvement. This proactive approach to environmental management translates to tangible benefits, such as reduced waste, energy conservation and cost savings.

Health & Hygiene

Park Derochie partners with another “Best in Class” organization who provides industrial health and hygiene services – Pinchin Ltd. This ensures we are capable of protecting our workforce from health and hygiene risks in the workplace.

eCompliance

Park Derochie uses eCompliance as an electronic platform providing 24-7 access to our most current documents and forms via any smartphone or tablet. 

By using eCompliance, we are able to monitor HSE activities performed in real time, providing trended and statistical summaries with “at a glance” actional information.

I-CARE Reporting

The I-CARE Reporting function within eCompliance provides Workers a practical method of reporting important information to Supervision and Management in real time – 24 hours per day, 7 days per week.

The I-CARE Report includes the following meaningful and actionable leading indicator data:

  • At-risk Behaviours
  • Near Misses
  • Hazard Identification
  • Opportunities for Improvement
  • Positive Observations

Trending of HSE statistics allows Park Derochie to understand “what we are doing well” and “what we can do better” in the world of Health, Safety and Environment. This information helps identify areas for positive recognition, as well as areas for continued improvement strategies and initiatives.

Workforce Recovery and Worker’s Compensation

Park Derochie strives to prevent all workplace injuries. When injuries do occur, we ensure our Employees receive the highest standard of care throughout the recovery process.

Our HSE Manager – Return-to-Work & Employee Wellness, possesses a proven track record of occupational claims management and non-occupational injury management services. With numerous years of experience working directly for Alberta’s Worker’s Compensation Board (WCB), complemented by experience working for various 3rd party claims management service providers, our Return-to-Work program strikes the correct balance of WCB claims management and Employee care and compassion.

If our workers become injured at the worksite, they know Park Derochie will take care of them. And the provincial Worker’s Compensation Boards know we will manage all claims in line with WCB policy. This translates to optimal WCB premium ratings and overall WCB performance.
