Board of Canadian Registered Safety Professionals Home Page

The occupational health and safety profession is one of those rare fields of work where you have the ability and the privilege to positively influence the lives of so many. It's a rewarding career with many varied roles available. The CRSP designation sets apart practitioners from professionals, which in today's increasingly competitive world is one of the elements that can set an individual apart from the field. Now in a more senior role within my own organization, we continue to ask for and support our staff in pursuing their designation. It adds to both our organizational and to individual professionalism and credibility.

To me, holding a CRSP designation is ultimately about continuing to improve my leadership and knowing I have the competencies required to influence others to make good decisions in order to improve workplace health and safety. I try to serve as a positive role model for the BCRSP and to use my knowledge and experience in order to support and encourage others who work in our field to reach their full potential through certification. I find these types of experiences to be rewarding and central to my overall career satisfaction, and so I recommend anyone who works in a health and safety role to take the time and effort required to make this investment in their future and achieve board certification.

Having CRSP’s on staff plays a significant part in continuing to achieve ongoing strong safety results due to their aptitude, dedication and commitment in the health and safety field.
