2023 OHSA Green Book now available


The Green Book (The Pocket Ontario OH&S Act and Regulations) contains the complete and current OHSA in a format that is easy to navigate. Colour-coded tabs and regulations-specific indexing mean looking up information is a quick and efficient task. Securing the Green Book to a Health & Safety board (so it doesn’t go missing) is easy thanks to a pre-drilled hole.

Please note that the price has gone up by $1 this year and is now $22.


The consolidated edition of the green book is appropriate for use in all Ontario firms and organizations in the industrial, manufacturing, health care and construction sectors, as well as in offices and other institutions covered by the Occupational Health & Safety Act.

Have a health and safety question? Our consultants are available to work with you to help address your workplace health and safety concerns.
