First up, a brand new Online Excavation Notification and Permit System that allows employers and contractors to notify the Workplace Safety and Health Division of the intent to begin excavation work and to obtain a registration number.
The new system will be available in the next few weeks and will – once live – be operational 24 hours a day, seven days a week.
Note: Employers must notify WSHD no more than 48 hours before the day the excavation work is scheduled to begin in order to receive a registration number. The process applies to excavations that will be more than 1.5 metres deep and will require a worker to enter. Employers may also continue to notify WSHD via the current Ex-Fax system or by calling 945-3446.
