As a licensed contractor, you are responsible for ensuring compliance with the Safety Standards Act, relevant regulations, and applicable safety orders and directives.

In early 2022 we began an initiative to learn about your experiences and challenges with licensing, and listen to your ideas and priorities around improving the licensing function. We asked about how a licence provides value to contractors, and how we can enhance that value.

Supporting those key themes, the following priorities were idnetified.

Technical Safety BC will be reconnecting with contractors to validate these findings and confirm priority areas for implementing change. 

How to participate
