How to obtain the "E" side when completing an OHS Management Degree (Canada)

Hi there,

I am enrolled into Western University for the post grad diploma in OHS management but I would rather end up in an industry that focuses more on the environmental side of things rather than construction and oil and gas, for example, the healthcare industry. How do I go about obtaining the E side, is there any certificates I should take? I noticed some job postings in B.C did not require any formal education, some just said "will train". Also, how do people in health and safety end up in emergency management/response positions? I only have a B.A. Also, wondering if anyone working in Health & Safety has ADHD and how do you find it? Is it a good fit? Does the variety of things to do everyday and from day to day help from feeling "bored"? Not asking for accomodations so please be nice, just curious if anyone can speak to their experience!

Thanks for any advice!

how much citation checking do you actually do before submitting?

we generate a lot of safety documentation internally. some sections are heavily cited - OSHA regs, NFPA standards, internal SOPs.

right now we spot-check because a full pass takes too long with the volume we handle. but the citations always look polished and i don't always know if they actually support the specific claim being made.

for teams dealing with high-volume cited documentation - are you doing full verification or spot-checking? and when something does slip through, how do you usually find out? internal review catches it, or does it take an external reviewer or audit?

Applying for CSP

Hi All. I'm looking to apply for CSP and I'm a little unclear about how to present my work experience information. There are options to put in percentages for the summary of job activities and I'm not sure what's the best way to fill this info.

For example, there are separate boxes for hazard identification, hazard evaluation, hazard control design and hazard control verification - 4 steps of a risk assessment. if conducting risk assessments and developing standard operating procedures is 20% of my role - should I put 5% in each of the 4 boxes?

Does it matter how I present the info?
