⏰ Rest time at work matters.

Breaks help you stay focused, reduce fatigue, and work safely. In BC, workers must receive an unpaid 30-minute meal break after 5 consecutive hours of work.

Knowing your rights is one of the best ways to protect yourself at work.

🚨 Injured at work? Report it right away.

If you're hurt on the job:
✔️ Tell your supervisor or manager immediately
✔️ Get first aid if needed
✔️ Complete an injury report

Reporting workplace injuries helps ensure you get the support you need and helps prevent future incidents.

Some employers don’t have our best interest at heart.
🇨🇦 In BC, you have the right to know about hazards in your workplace, the right to refuse unsafe work, and the right to participate in workplace health and safety activities. Know YOUR rights!

👕 Starting a new job?

Make sure you know what's required when it comes to workplace clothing.

Ask:
✔️ Is there a uniform or dress code?
✔️ Is safety gear required?
✔️ Who pays for required items?
✔️ What am I expected to provide myself?

Knowing the difference between work uniforms and safety clothing can help you stay safe, prepared, and informed from day one.
