Supervisors are the front line workers responsible for ensuring good safety management on site and helping employees work safely every day.

This makes good safety sense – and it’s the law.  Section 117 of the Workers Compensation Act requires supervisors to be knowledgeable regarding their responsibilities and requires them to make the workers they are supervising aware of all known or foreseeable health or safety hazards in the area where they work.

The BC Forest Safety Council provides several different levels of supervisor training:  Basic Forest Supervisor training, and a Faller Supervisor course that leads to optional certification as a Faller Supervisor (Bullbucker) . 

This training gives participants the knowledge and skills to meet their legal responsibilities and the awareness of their leadership role in making sure their workers are safe.
