Workplace Safety

Prevention Fund

The YWCHSB set up a $5 million temporary Prevention Fund to support the start-up of initiatives that benefit Yukon workers and employers by building a strong safety culture and preventing work-related injuries and illnesses. 

When the Prevention Fund was available, the YWCHSB looked for initiatives that:

  • Focussed on developing a strong culture of workplace safety and health
  • Benefited a wide range of Yukon workers and employers
  • Were sustainable after start-up support from the Prevention Fund
  • Involved collaboration between workplace parties
  • Required minimal draw on YWCHSB resources
  • Showed measurable results
