The health and safety of workers is the paramount priority when operating within the COVID-19 pandemic environment. The B.C. Maritime Employers Association was pleased to contribute to CSA Group's critical research by sharing the practical health and safety solutions that have enhanced the health and safety of B.C.’s waterfront workers, while keeping essential cargo flowing to and from B.C.’s ports during Canada’s fight against COVID-19. https://www.csagroup.org//workplaces-and-covid-19-occupat/

Please consider supporting the Vancouver Aquarium Marine Mammal Rescue Centre. With the closing of the Vancouver Aquarium due to the COVID-19 pandemic, funds that normally go to support programs like the Rescue Centre have been severely impacted. Please join us in "adopting" or "naming" a seal pup!
