Pursuant to a congressional request, GAO provided information on
U.S. and Canadian programs for ensuring workplace safety. GAO found
that: (1) ensuring workplace safety is a federal responsibility in
the United States, but is a provincial responsibility in Canada;
(2) Canadian provinces link programs for preventing and
compensating for work-related injuries and illnesses; (3) Canadian
employers directly fund health and safety programs; (4) Canadian
laws mandate employer and worker responsibility and accountability
for safety and health issues; (5) there is a greater enforcement
presence and potential for immediate response to hazardous
situations in Canada; and (6) differences to consider in evaluating
U.S. programs include the programs' relative sizes, workforce
organization, the potential for litigation, and constitutional
issues.
