HEALTH AND SAFETY

• Al and Malka Green Artists’ Health Centre (AHC)

  Located at the Toronto Western Hospital, the AHC offers both complementary/alternative and conventional health care to professional creative and performing artists, and to students and staff at post-secondary arts institutions. The mandate includes research, education and outreach to the arts community.

  The work of the AHC is supported by the Artists’ Health Centre Foundation

• Ministry of Labour 

  Safety guidelines for Ontario’s film and television business have been developed by a joint management labour committee and are available at this site.  Ministry of Labour inspectors may refer to measures in the guidelines, depending on the circumstances of a particular situation, as reasonable precautions an employer can take under the Occupational Health and Safety Act for the protection of workers.

• Workplace Safety and Insurance Board (WSIB)

  Some artists working digital media may be covered by their employers for workplace injuries and accidents under the WSIB. This site has general information about workplace safety and information about rights and obligations of workers.
