The Mainstay Awards will be updated in 2017. The format and timing of the awards program is being reconsidered, as we look at the safety year as a whole and enter the final year of the Workplace Safety Strategy. Entry deadlines and entry requirements will be updated here as they become available. Check the Mainstay Awards page for updates.

The Mainstay Awards set a standard in the province by recognizing excellence in workplace safety. Organized by WCB Nova Scotia and Nova Scotia Department of Labour and Advanced Education, this world-class safety awards program recognizes those individuals, organizations and employers whose efforts have moved Nova Scotia toward a safer future.
