To help ensure that all Contractors retained:

have adequate H&S programs
follow and practice their H&S programs

Why we are implementing COR

SLIDE 4

COR and Risk Mitigation

COR is expected to level the playing field for all

Contractor H&S Programs, supporting those Contractors that value and promote safety and have demonstrated investment into H&S programs

We see it as a means of ensuring a measure of

consistency in safety programs among our contractors

Acknowledges and confirms that safety and safe

working environments are a priority for the City

SLIDE 5

Direct Benefits

Ensures consistent application of safety standards for all

Contractors who work for the City

Ensures an adequate level of worker and public protection
Reduced workplace incidents and accidents

SLIDE 6

Considerations/Challenges around Adoption of COR

Process may drive Contractors out of Toronto Market
Process may drive prices up
COR should be targeted to high-risk type projects
Process may put additional strain on small Contractors
The number of registered and certified Contractors is low

SLIDE 7

Proposed Implementation Timelines

With the broad range of contractors potentially impacted by a City-wide rollout, and the need to ensure competitive bids on City tenders, a multi-phased roll-out is proposed. This allows sufficient time for contractors to incorporate COR into their business plans and integrate the necessary elements into their existing health and safety programs.
