Nanaimo Health and Safety Consulting

Supporting Nanaimo businesses with practical safety programs, WorkSafeBC compliance, and real help when you need it.

Occupational Health & Safety Services for Nanaimo and the Mid-Island

Nanaimo has a wide mix of industries. You’ve got construction, trades, machining, fabrication, marine work, aquaculture, retail, service, and everything in between. Most of these businesses are required to have a solid health and safety program. The problem is, most owners are already stretched thin.

That’s where GreenSpine Safety Solutions comes in.

Based on Vancouver Island and working regularly across Nanaimo, Ladysmith, Cedar and the mid-Island, I help businesses build safety systems that are easy to understand and actually work on the job.

You don’t need a giant binder and corporate jargon. You need something that keeps people safe and keeps WorkSafeBC off your back. That’s my wheelhouse.

Health and Safety Services in Nanaimo

1. Written Health and Safety Programs (WorkSafeBC Compliant)

I build complete, custom safety programs for Nanaimo businesses. These include:

  • Policies and procedures

  • Safe Work Procedures

  • Safe Job Procedures

  • Risk assessments

  • Required forms and templates

  • Training requirements

  • Industry-specific hazards

  • WorkSafeBC alignment for your industry

Whether you’re in construction, aquaculture, a shop environment or an office, your safety program should match the real work your people do.

2. Fractional Safety Consulting for Nanaimo Businesses

Many mid-Island businesses don’t need a full-time safety professional, but they do need consistent support. This is what fractional consulting is for.

Monthly support can include:

  • Site inspections

  • Worker orientations

  • Supervisor coaching

  • Incident reviews

  • Corrective actions

  • Program updates

  • Toolbox talks and safety meetings

  • WorkSafeBC communication

  • Anytime advice when things go sideways

This is a great fit for fabrication shops, marine operations, aquaculture sites, construction crews and small industrial workplaces.

3. Young and New Worker Training

Nanaimo has a high number of young workers entering trades, aquaculture, service and construction. Injuries spike in the first three months on the job. Training should never be an afterthought.

I deliver:

  • New worker onboarding

  • Young worker safety orientation

  • Hazard awareness

  • Supervisor responsibilities

  • Real-world examples from Vancouver Island

  • Simple, clear safety expectations

Young workers listen when the content is real and not pulled from a generic slideshow.

If you are aiming for COR or ISO certification, I can help you get there with:

  • COR gap analysis

  • Documentation review

  • Audit preparation

  • Corrective action planning

  • Worker training

  • Supervisor leadership guidance

As a COR auditor myself, I help you cut through the confusion and get things lined up properly.
