A. Organizational Information
CCOHS operates as a departmental corporation of the Federal government, and is governed by an independent tripartite Council of Governors comprised of representatives from labour, business, federal, provincial and territorial Canadian governments. This structure helps to ensure that CCOHS remains a well informed and a trusted source of unbiased information for employers, workers and governments.
The internal departments have recently been reorganized. This change will align resources by service and program area so that every area includes the technical, marketing and subject specialists necessary for delivery. Systems will maintain the infrastructure necessary to deliver products and support the products and services developed and the web. The Inquiries Service provides direct free front line service to Canadians via telephone, fax, mail and Internet. They also provide customer service for cost- recovery products. Communication will continue to promote the use of CCOHS products and services, communications to Canadians and marketing activities. The Controller's group provides services to the departments including finance, operations support, facilities management and internal computer systems. Human resources supports all departments.
