Alberta OHS Code Review

June 15, 2026

Albertans are invited to provide feedback for Alberta’s ongoing review of Alberta’s OHS Code. Complete the surveys by July 8.

Albertans are invited to participate in our ongoing review of the Occupational Health and Safety Code (OHS Code). This is an opportunity to improve health and safety outcomes for workers and streamline requirements to reduce unnecessary administrative burden.

The OHS Code is a regulation of the Occupational Health and Safety Act (OHS Act) that contains the detailed technical requirements for controlling health and safety hazards at workplaces. Potential updates to the code reflect how workplaces are changing and consider new best practices, standards and technological advances.

Albertans are asked to provide feedback on potential updates when they are ready for review; this is our third review. The OHS Act requires the Alberta government to publish a plan to review the OHS Code every 3 years.

Get informed

Potential changes to the OHS Code will:

  • reflect current health and safety best practices
  • remove duplication and reduce administrative burden
  • align the OHS Code with other provinces, where applicable
