SAFE Hospitality is an injury and illness prevention strategy administered by the Manitoba Tourism Education Council (MTEC). The program is financed entirely through a surcharge paid by establishments who are registered with the WCB in subgroup 70106.

The goal is to reduce time-loss injury rate in the workplace by 25 percent over five years with the participation of industry, labour and educational organizations.

 It is the mission of SAFE Hospitality to support the prevention and reduction of workplace injuries, and develop a safety culture within Manitoba restaurants.

This mission will be accomplished through:

  • Discussions and development of safety topics and plans with operators with a goal to reduce workplace accidents
  • On site visits providing effective and practical solutions to create and maintain a safer workplace
  • Inventorying, developing and providing resources, tools and materials that enable businesses to meet their responsibilities (print and web based).
  • Avoiding duplication of topics, information or training that is already available to work co-operatively toward joint goals
  • Coordination of Regional Forums, Recognition Events and sharing of best practices with key industry and related partners.
  • Establish relationships with stakeholders and industry leaders to expand participation and build a stronger and more effective safety program.
