Contractor Management
The Contractor Management Process requires that all contractors who wish to do business with OPG are pre-qualified based on a demonstration of their ability to manage the health and safety, environmental and quality aspects of the contracted work, in addition to satisfying the technical and commercial requirements of the work.

In Ontario, the Occupational Health and Safety Act (OHSA) requires that every employer with more than five employees prepare a health and safety policy and a program to implement that policy. OHSA also requires that the employer review the health and safety policy at least annually.

In order to provide OPG assurance that its contractors take workplace health and safety seriously and will manage the health and safety of workers effectively and in compliance with occupational health and safety legislation while working for us, OPG has established a Contractor Management Process.

Supplier assessments will be done based on OPG’s knowledge of a current supplier’s capability or the need to qualify a new supplier based on the suppliers technical capability, quality assurance, environment, health and safety, and financial strength.
